JULY E-NEWS

Children's Division Bag Drive

2011-01-17T08:45:00.000-08:00

Announcing a new event for HAIN's Children's Division!

From January through the end of March 2011 we will be holding a drive to collect and distribute Kids Comfort Bags (also known as Sibling Support Bags). Volunteers are asked to mail these bags to headquarters or to donate locally to fire departments, emergency rooms, police stations, etc. These bags are designed to provide comfort to kids in traumatic situations and include a blanket, small toy and optional activity pad/journal with age-appropriate writing utensil(s) for older kids who can use them. These bags can also be given to the surviving siblings of babies who have passed away. Check with your NILMDTS photographers and NICUs to see if they will be willing to accept and distribute these.

Making the Kids Comfort Bags is very simple. It takes a tote bag, blanket and a stuffed toy for a child. If you are interested in helping out with these or have new items that you would like to donate to this cause please check out our craft forum or email samantha@heavenlyangelsinneed.com for more information.

2011-01-17T08:38:00.000-08:00

Crochet-A-Thon: is currently making hats, bonnets and booties
Knit-A-Thon: is currently making gowns and baby wraps
Memory Box-A-Thon: currently working on various memory boxes

If you are a member of our craft forum you can also check there for more details, patterns and chat with other members that are participating in this months challenge.

Keep an eye out because a new challenge will be starting soon for February and we would love to have more volunteers participate.

What HAIN has been up to

2010-09-09T10:00:00.000-07:00

Heavenly angels in need has been doing many things
1. We started an online e-newsletter. We had our 18 page quarterly newsletter, but now only offer it 2 times a year Oct/April. Our e-news puts our volunteers in touch monthly. It gives them news right in their email's. The volunteers know what is going on with in our charity right away. This helps bring us all together!
2. We now have craft a-thons. All our athons are based on a particular craft...i.e. knitting, crochet etc..we encourage our new members to jump on board in these. Each month a new project is started, where everyone focuses on this new project.
3. We also have our challenges that we do 2 times a year. These challenges are about 4-6 months long. We usually do a school supply challenge/sibling support bag challenge as well for the children's division.
4. Don't forget our gift exchanges. They are for christmas and HAIN's birthday. Both are a celebration of our volunteers!
Thank you all who make HAIN a success. If you are interested in volunteering..please join our craft forum http://haincraftforum.org

How Heavenly Angels in Need started

This video was made in 2003 when H.A.I.N. first was started. The info is no longer accurate (address & phone) and the video is made a bit cheesy but I hope you enjoy...

Craft Buddies

2008-11-19T06:53:00.000-08:00

Craft Buddies is a wonderful group who do many types of crafts, from needle work to woodwork. They are just crafters that chat, share and more. Some of their members decided to help H.A.I.N. and this is the second large donation this wonderful group has given to H.A.I.N. This is just a FEW pics of what they sent. There were lots and lots of donations.

Thank you Craft Buddies!!!

Little hats for babies

2008-11-05T19:06:00.001-08:00

These hats were made by Angie. She is a wonderful volunteer in H.A.I.N. These hats will warm a babies head and can save their life. If you are interested in knitting, crochet or sewing hats for premature babies please go on our website and see how you can help :)

Praying for the Unborn

2008-11-05T09:21:00.001-08:00

Last night was a sad day for the unborn and for our nation. The unborn will be the sacrifice of our decisions. I am asking you as people to please get on your knee's and pray for the unborn, pray that the Lord protects them. Its not new that abortion exists. However what is going to be put into place is far worse. Many, many, many abortions all the way to term will take place and will be legal to do so. Infants who survive an abortion will be smothered, left to die or drown and it will be legal. Its a sad day for our nations infants. H.A.I.N. is about helping babies and children in need. We do not limit what babies mean. I do not feel that talking about abortion is political but about the dignity and rights of a human being.
I will not be quiet, I stand up to help ALL babies and children in need, no matter what gestation.
If you are interested in having a particular day for a prayer vigil for the unborn, please let us know!

OCT 15, 2008 Remember our angels in Heaven

2008-10-15T07:52:00.000-07:00

Light a Candle for your baby tonight!

Remembering our angels. Loss of an infant, child or any family member is so hard on all of us. Please remember to understand that when someone needs to talk "let them".
Remember when the family who experienced loss needs to cry " let them".
Remember if they need to get mad "let them".
If they need to pray "let them".

Consider lighting a candle tonight at 7 pm tonight in memory of someone you love.
This month is infant loss awareness month!

Crisis Pregnancy Center Arson fire

2008-09-24T07:20:00.000-07:00

You can even have them shipping to us if you order off line. If you go through amazon if you buy $25.00 worth of items you can get "FREE SHIPPING". Please consider helping HAIN stock up so we can load this center with all the items they lost (which is everything)

Send all items to

Heavenly Angels in Need

To read about the fire
Here is a link to a newspaper article about the fire:

Here's another one from a TV station site (the paper in Albany redirected me here):

http://www.katu.com/home/related/28429434.html

I already talked to PAC and because they do not have a building yet to store items we agreed to collect and store items until we heard from them on where to bring items. Please help us help this wonderful ministry of helping families touch the lives of those who need our help!!

Ebay/mission fish and HAIN

2008-09-16T15:14:00.000-07:00

http://donations.ebay.com/charity/charity.jsp?NP_ID=16462

There is a listing of 2 items to benefit HAIN. They are donating 10% of the proceeds to HAIN each item.
The link above is our permanent link for any listing that benefits H.A.I.N. keep an eye out for more listings..or maybe ebay picking HAIN has a charity to benefit. Do a search for Heavenly angels in need and help HAIN!!

2 recent emergent request

2008-09-16T08:19:00.000-07:00

We usually have a spreadsheet we have with lists of places to give to and our volunteers pick a place and just send something to a need off of the list. However randomly we receive an emergent request. One request recently was for a casket.
We were able to provide a family a casket we also sent burial clothes and a memory box. It was wonderful to see how our volunteers all came together to get this request done. And also the funeral home that helped donate a casket to this family who was in great need.
Then another came and with in the next day the parents were being sent a quilt, memory box, burial clothes, and more.. It was wonderful to see how quickly our volunteers were able to meet the needs of another emergent need.

I have to brag and say our volunteers are priceless!!!

Serving bereaved families

2008-09-01T09:53:00.000-07:00

Here are a few questions I am asking so we can serve bereaved families better as an organization. I am asking this from all who feel like speaking up!!

We offer memory boxes for parents after losing a baby (heavenly angels in need does). What type of art or sayings are appropriate for us to use to decorate on these boxes? What colors? What kind of thing would you want inside the box? Would you want something that has teddy bears, butterflies, Asian symbols, basically what is appropriate to you for us to decorate the boxes with?
Thank you for this. We are really working on striving to give what is needed and wanted. But want to ask direct from the families and whomever can help as much as possible!!
Also,we are also considering personalizing boxes. Like have parents send us a "copy" of a picture of their baby and we could decoupage the picture onto a box. This is for parents who did not get anything such as a memory box when they were at hospital. Not for parents who did.
What do you think about this idea?

Ok we are slowly putting up our site and our forum boards are both up.

Craft Forum: http://haincraftforum.org
Comfort Forum: http://haincomfortforum.org

Site so far http://heavenlyangelsinneed.com
also .org works too...
-Mary

there is something there (webpage)

2008-07-22T08:36:00.000-07:00

The invision people put one of our pages there but its the wrong page,, its one of our temple pages I haven't worked on yet :) I will switch it around later. At least it kinda shows what our website will look like right :) Just missing the most important stuff, the information!!! :)

They are still working on our forum boards, but I believe they will be done today! I really do. The IP Staff as you can tell is awesome. This one I think is addicted now to the challenge, he has been working on this full time from morning until I went on my evening walk he was still working on it, and from home!! Now you tell me if what we will be paying a month is well worth it then the 10 a month and no real tech support as we were goning to pay with Brinkster.
And our host before that was 90.00 a month and sometimes I never heard from her at all when I wrote with questions or needs. So I think 49 a month isn't to bad and they work their bottoms off until it is complete, and if I don't know how to do it, they will do it for me!!

So looking at our main website will give you an idea of what our pages will look like. Not our main intro page or our menu page, but the rest of the pages will look like that, but with info on them and pictures!

back ups and pulling hair out

2008-07-21T12:07:00.000-07:00

The host said "everything about this is NOT BEEN EASY so far" You can always tell when the old devil is at work, cuz even the most educated can't even figure out what is happening and why! Its been nothing but an uphill battle trying to get anything to work. For some reason our databases we back up aren't working! That is so frustrating to me and the host! Then if that is not bad enough I have a few annoying flies that keep landing on me when I am trying to get something done here!!! lololololol MAN I CAN'T STAND FLIES!

So it looks like it could be longer to get this up and going. With the comfort forum we may end up having to start all over again! FROM SCRATCH! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

just waiting to hear from host

2008-07-21T08:31:00.001-07:00

Right now I have been waiting and waiting. Sunday's they don't seem to respond so I am assuming they do not work on Sunday's. Now I am still waiting which is highly unusual to wait this long for them. I am assuming they must be swamped!

I can't seem to figure out how to publish my pages from the control panel. I know once I get it, I will get it! lol But as of right now I am clueless.

Also I am trying to get them to add my other domains and rid a couple subdomains they added. Frusterating, cuz I would do this myself by can't with out them enabling a setting that is disabled! Anyway .....

hopefully tomorrow

2008-07-20T17:04:00.000-07:00

Because its Sunday I am not getting a response to my questions which I understand. Anyway I at least got some of our email accounts to work (finally)!!

To write to

me- mary@heavenlyangelsinneed.com
Regular HAIN email info@heavenlyangelsinneed.com

This is all for now!

Now I am trying to learn how to even load the site. I mean i got all of it over there, now its trying to figure out how to publish it where you all see it! The forums should be up tomorrow!

FRUSTERATED........GRRRRRRR

2008-07-19T14:44:00.000-07:00

I am getting the run around trying to get our .com site pointed to our new host, and our old host from before Brinkster won't respond to my request to move the .org site! I have no grace right now. I am so frustrated I feel like throwing myself to the floor and throwing a tantrum! Ok I can't use my info@heavenlyanglesinneed.com email because our .com site isn't being pointed over to our new host becuase I do not have access to the old email I used when signing up for the account in 2003 to get our .com domain! Plus they can't email the info account to verify it there either. Then all of a sudden my suppose phone number they tried calling and my answering machine though on won't allow them to leave a message!

GIRLS I am HOT! I may need prayer cuz mamma bear is comming out of her cave. HAIN's reputation is at stake having it offline for so long I am p________________ed

purchased our new host package

2008-07-18T09:47:00.000-07:00

I did finally purchase the package. Its 49.00 a month but its well worth it for the awesome support that we have experienced with these guys (with our forums).

Anyway it will be at least 24 hours however, due to waiting for our past host to point our domains to the new hosts and before the web catches up with it.

They are trying to get our forums loaded however!

Mary

Gives us time

2008-07-16T11:55:00.000-07:00

Being away from the forum gives us time to sit and do a craft for those sweet angels.
I continue to get more NILMDTS requests. Once we get back online I will post the needs.

I started a project awhile back for my cousin's baby. I am stuck in a spot I am not sure how to complete the project. Don't you hate that?

I am probably going to complete the newsletter. LOL I have never had such a problem producing something in my entire life. With all the million distractions it get put on the back burner every time.
I am needing to work on some baby projects for sure. Nice things about booties and hats, is they are fast and easy to complete.

My hubby and my kids and myself went on a walk yesterday. We decided to go swimming on the Calapooia River that runs next to our home. It was so nice. The kids had a blast and surprisingly it was not really cold at all. Its a suprise knowing that much of that water comes off the mountains surounding us.
Its so pretty here. I feel so fortunate to be blessed with this beauty. Its nice to see my kids enjoy life again. They were pretty depressed where we lived before!

When all life gets to me, all I have to do is walk. I need to go out in the shade and knit, that is what I need to do. I used to do that alot when HAIN first started. But then it got so busy that I simply stop taking the time to just relax.

You know being away makes me realize even more just how special our volunteers are. You work and work to give to others and not one of you complain! Your such a huge inspiration to me personally and to one another. Girls I miss you!

I should be working on the website too. Its hard to know what to do because I am not sure what to expect with our new server-hopefully soon!

Well I love you all and will post again soon!

Our email's also down

2008-07-15T15:57:00.000-07:00

Volunteers,

As you may notice our emails are also down. We are waiting until our old host reimburses us which may not be until Friday. 2-3 business days. Once that happens we will go to invision right away. And should have our craft forum up ASAP. I will be working on changing the looks of it overtime too! Thank you Lord that is not to hard to do. Invision offers codes for doing that pretty quickly!

I will probably put up one page to our website just to get it on. And work on those slowly. I didn't have much time to do aything with all the email and problems with this last host!

Ayway just updating you.

Email my private email if you have any questions. I already sent an email to all of you with that info in it!

Love yeah Mary

While our site is down

2008-07-15T09:47:00.000-07:00

Our site is down at the moment. We are rebuilding it! (And also getting a new host)

Anyway I miss all you HAIN addicted members. I know I am addicted...

Post a reply and let us know how you are..

1 items SOLD

2008-06-29T09:10:00.000-07:00

Well one of our items sold. I am happy it sold. The money is going towards the cost of a new host. This will be a huge blessing! More space and options for alot less money!

"Burma" Thailand Can you help? I bet you can!

2008-05-13T10:18:00.000-07:00

Thailand is suffering right now from a horrific storm that has taken the lives of thousands of people. The Burmese people who were already being abused by their own abusive governement is now being held from getting the help they need to survive. Thousands of babies and children are dying from starvation, war from a corrupt governement, homelessessness and no medical care. Many Nations have offered help to this country and they are not allowed to help.
Please dig into your deep pockets and offer help. We ask that you give to these recommended charities

True Hero's

2008-04-29T13:50:00.000-07:00

I was invited by Kirk Kief himself to a photography training session in Portland Oregon. Kirk is from Florida but has been traveling around for an organization called Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep (NILMDTS).I found Kirk to be friendly, kind and gentle hearted. He made me feel welcome to be there. I was honored to have been invited to this session.Kirk asked me to say something at an appointed time. I am not well with speaking in public. I was nervous and I know it showed.
The session had much to learn from. My husband Brian also went and was glad he did.

My point of why I am writing this was what keeps coming back to me. When I learned more details of what the photographers see sometimes in those private moments in the room with the family, the compassion they feel for the families I then realized even more then before many things about volunteers that truly give with their hearts through NILMDTS, H.A.I.N. and so many other organizations are true hero’s. They are the ones who change the world. Mold the world. They give, share, serve and love others. They would lend out a hand to someone in need. Not turn a nose to a hurting person. Those are the people who are making history. Right now they may not be seen in the public light but those who know them see the true hero’s they are. I once heard a hero is someone who doesn’t know it. Well I have seen hero’s there at the session and everyday working with them online and in person.Thank you volunteers for what you do to help others in need.

In Memory of baby Tayden

2007-06-05T16:05:00.000-07:00

Baby Boy Tayden was only 24 weeks gestation and this little angel went to be with the Lord.
Here is the Casket HAIN gave to Tayden's family to bury him in and his gown..

We are deeply sorry we had to use this part of our ministry but we are humbly happy we could be there for this family in their time of grief..

And his memory box

Working on hand puppets

2007-05-27T14:28:00.000-07:00

I am hoping to start creating easy hand puppet type toys (knitted) pattern to go in each issue of our newsletter. One I got done but see where I need to make it longer is a skunk though it kinda looks like a bear lol, I was making it into a hat for a baby then my son Gabe grabbed it and said mom is this a puppet, he grabbed onto that and wanted to play with, so I finally gave it to him and it got my brain rolling, hum what if we made some for children in hospitals, no sharp ends and they are light weight and can be used laying in bed.

I also a working on more patterns all the time. I created a cute little hat but with hats its hard to make an original someone else hasn't thought of already. However I do have a neat idea for another burial outfit...........

In memory of Aidan

2007-05-18T10:11:00.001-07:00

I had a mom write me and ask if I could make a hat for her upcomming new baby girl in memory of her baby boy whom passed away. Well my heart was moved, I decided to not only make a hat but booties and a cardigan. Here are the booties, now I will be working on the hat next then the cardy.. This pattern in the michelle booties (link to pattern with post with pink booties) I adjusted the pattern where I did a knit 2, purl to Rib pattern on top of bootie. Its so adorable in person. I am afraid my cell phone didn't take the pictures real well.

An Angel being buried today

2007-05-14T12:43:00.000-07:00

We received a call of a little baby boy that passed away and needed our help ASAP, the family is was completely broke, I mean they had nothing. We were called and I called our Region that is active in making caskets and burial gowns out of wedding gowns.

I called the family and told them we could help, and the friend who was sitting this all up started to cry and was very moved by what we offer and begin to tell me about the family and their struggles and how she felt this was one of the very things that might help heal this family.

Region 3 made plans to ship a casket and burial garments ASAP (the next morning) then by evening I get and email telling me they were going to drive it they live in WA and we live in OR. I was so personally moved by this volunteers unselfish act.

The casket and burial garments and then she made a matching memory box and more..

This is all of it together!!!

As I sit here and type this I realize that the babies funeral is in 5 min and it makes me sad to think another family will not ever see that baby here on earth again.

I just pray that this family comes together and mends through this loss.

Donate your wedding gown, prom gown etc..

We offer a receipt so please hurry before this year ends!

Are you a giver? Or receiver?

2006-11-26T13:55:00.000-08:00

This is a question I want you to ask yourself.

So what is your answer?

I run a Nationwide charity and see people come and go, people with good intentions and people who simply do not care. We also have met people who are just givers who care so much about others in need.

This Christmas is one we are excited about because all can be involved!!

If your a giver you will jump on this.

Only 1 donation not much to ask.You can donate money if its easier. Look on our blog or our website http://Heavenlyangelsinneed.com and donate with a credit card & debit card safely and securly with justgive.org button on either site!

What if that does not appeal to you well do you have a store near you?

You can send a new toy, coat, clothes whatever to Heavenly Angels in Need or ask for the direct area we are donating for this year I can send you the address. (Be sure to wrap your present!! no war toys please, because of where these kids have been.

Who are we serving for Christmas?

We have refugees from Thialand (Burma) families with children who have nothing! Literally.

Thay have never had or heard of Christmas before. Think about it!! Your children with nothing, if that doesn't affect you what will??
I know you will probably have good intentions and even offer to help, but will you follow through?

Will your kids go without this year? Probably not, even our poorest children in the US are far richer then these children. Please watch real video's of some of these families we are covering http://Frontfilms.com

If you think you have nothing to offer please think twice!!

Like I said we can send you the direct address to where to send the items or send them to

Heavenly Angels in Need
P.O. Box 2394
3113 Columbine St.
Lebanon, OR 97355
Need a reciept please log in when you have made a donation to

My Space "Whats the Big Deal"

2006-10-17T12:28:00.000-07:00

So many people are bashing myspace and because the news batrays bad people that may be members of myspace! Does it really mean that all who use it are bad?

Well if you will not join your charity because you are afraid of people like that then you are really mislead. Our charity are proud members of myspace.com. We joined and I promote our charity on myspace. There are so many untouched crafters there who are falling all over themselves to help. Who have never heard of charities like ours! Well HAIN feels like no matter what you beleive if your willing to help us help others then we will reach out to touch you whereever you are. I suppose if Christ only hung around the Holy then who would need to be touched!
Well having that attitude we have not only met some of the most amazing people but have found that 100's of other Orgnizations and minitries are also using myspace as a tool to reach the hurting! Yes hundreds maybe thousands! Ok another way to look at it is "no matter where you go you will find bad people" so does that mean you shouldn't get on the computer! No its how you use the computer as a tool for your purpose! Do I allow my children on myspace, yes with me because you have to really seek out the bad to get the bad. And besides there is a ban option for banning people you do not want.
Myspace is as personal, fun, and good as you make it yourself! You can have a page of all Christian based or whatever your design option you chose to make it! Ok so you have to learn how to copy html codes thats not hard once you learn it!
So really its the fear of the unknown that bothers you! Well Then maybe you should live in fear and not reach out to many who are willing to be a big part of minitries like ours. But we have had way over 60 new members with in a short 3 months time join HAIN! Because HAIN is here to reach out to others in need, we are not to good and above anyone. Were just here to serve!
Here is a few pictures of 1 myspace friend of things she donated!!

Garbage Bag Holder

2006-10-11T08:43:00.000-07:00

Materials: Bernat 100% Cotton yarns (or other types you prefer)
Size 8 Circular Knit needles.

CO 70 stitches (If you decide for a long tube instead of the short round then CO less stitches making sure its an even amount) Put a marker or use a different color yarn to seperate the beg row from the end.

Since this is worked in the round you do not need to purl stitches it will be stockenette with just knitting each row.

Knit 2 rows
(eyelet row)then Knit 2 tog, YO, Knit 1. Repeat until end of row.
Then knit all rows until the bag holder is the size you prefer. I made mine about 10 to 14 inches.
Then when the holder is the size I prefer
you Do another eyelet row.
Then knit 2 more rows.
then BO all stitches across.

Make 2 chains (Top chain needs to be longer)(crochet, by hand or whatever way you prefer) weave a chain in the top eyelet row and the bottom. The bottom eyelet row you genetly leave loose so you can pull your bags through it (make tie close to bag)and with the top chain you weave through and lightly tie towards the top of the bag making it where you can hang the bag. So make it where you can tie and untie as needed to hang it where you choose. Weave in ends..

Load the garbage bags in the top (wal-mart bags) If your using this in babies room, kitchen or even the bathroom to use for a washcloth holder its up to you have fun with it!

Hum, Teaching kids!!

2006-09-08T08:56:00.000-07:00

I was talking to our kids school Secretary about HAIN and teaching kids in my daughters class knitting and looming. And having a tour of the PICU wards where these kids can see what we do and why and who we help. And she thinks the teacher will love it!
Teaching children to give to others in need and also keeping the knitting tradition going!! Isn't that great???
