Missionaries Panama Steve and Lori Torrison Babies, Babies, Babies
No, no, Lori is not pregnant again! But she IS attempting to start an outreach to pregnant girls. And she needs your help! Here's more:
"I'm planning to offer a series of basic parenting classes using materials that we used at the crisis pregnancy center in Woodward, OK. These classes are designed to teach new, young, often teenage mothers about everything from nutrition to giving baby a bath. One thing we did that I would also like to do here is give each mother a homemade baby blanket that had been made and donated by local ladies. I saw firsthand how touched the young mothers were that a stranger would go to so much trouble for someone they didn't know, and I think it can have the same effect here."
Want to help? E-mail Lori at storrison@fwbgo.com.

Postage can be a bit pricey on international packages; check with your local post office for the best rates. This option will cost more but the blanket will get here right away.
Option #2:
Find out when a team is coming to Panama and see if they have room to bring your blanket in their suitcase. This option will cost less but the blanket could take a while to get here.
