Launch Of Circle

Peace and Greetings for this special day!



The Circle is up running and moving. A big welcome to those who have joined the Circle. We are in full launch mode and will send out e-mails to our friends and love ones. While in our test mode we've had quite a few suggestions and comments and Angel has received a few letters through the website. Thanks to all of you.

Karen B in LA is planning an event with her stars, we are also organizing a night at the movies in NY to show some of Cici's film work. Cici and Sheryl will be organizing a 5K race in the spring, we are hoping it will be sanctioned by USATF. Stay tuned and start training.

At the Web site we have added the dates for "Great Stride" walks in various cities. We are hoping that we will be organized in teams in those cities to participate in the walks as Circle Teams- followed by a special event for team members. We are looking for team leaders in those cities to register the team and organize the team. Furthermore, we are planning a special day of prayer on Thanksgiving where we hope to have various congregations uplift Angel in prayer that day.

Please remember to add the URL to your favorites and to your contact list.

The game plan for Friday November 7, is to have a general mail out to our friends. We are asking circle members to write a personal note to your friends inviting them to join the circle. Please remember to add the link to your email. The link is: http://www.circleoffriendsforangel.com/

To keep this fluid and open please use the blog for comments you want to share with the circle. We are hoping to get some great ideas for events and to seek opportunities for fund-raising. To contact us directly use: info@circleoffriendforangel.com

Welcome

"It is 4:00 in the morning and it is once again time to take my anti rejection medication for new lungs, because of my Cystic Fibrosis condition. As I stop to pray, my thoughts are filled with the challenges of the day ahead. But I remind myself that I need to thank God for letting my lungs last yet another day. Often when I pray, I look back at August 19, 2005, not a historic day for many, but for me it was my new birthday, a gift of lungs were donated, helping to keep me alive. 

YES! It has been three years since my lungs were replaced; but it has been a lifetime of in and out of the hospital, and in and out of school. And now that I have started college this too is about to slip away. You see, it is now October 2008; once again my lungs are failing. I have started pre-counseling for a re-transplantation. But I have not given up; my Faith will continue to give me strength. I will get a new lung and I will finish college."

You are being introduced to Ronatha Angel Hall's story. While the little you have read does not tell a whole story of the young adolescent who lives in Florida, it certainly underscores her courage and the battle she faces at present. 

Angel's family and friends have started a circle of love campaign to provide support for her. Her next battle is quite fierce; first she must get a lung transplant, which would require hospitalization and a stay away from home for a minimum of three months, during which time she is required to follow a stringent rehabilitation program and continuous medication for the rest of her life. 

We are inviting friends to join in this circle of love campaign to keep hope alive for Angel. As a member of the circle we ask you to pray for Angel. We are also appealing to you for a financial contribution to help with what has now amount to a very large medical bill and expenses for Angel's family. It is tough times for all of us but I am reminded that the disciples were asked to gather up the crumbs to feed the multitude. We ask you to accept this invitation to join the circle. 

Please join the Circle of Friends for Angel. To start, please offer a prayer.

Sincerely,

The Circle of Friends Team.
