Sweet Sleep Around the US Last Week!

Last week was definitely a memorable one. From devastating tornadoes and flooding to the Royal Wedding -- we'll likely remember last week for years to come.

Last week was also a very busy and exciting week for Sweet Sleep. Our newest staff member, Dean Baylor, represented Sweet Sleep at the Orange conference in Atlanta, Jon Merryman celebrated what God is doing around the world through First Baptist Church Whitehouse, Texas - specifically for the orphans of Moldova through Sweet Sleep - at their annual Missions Celebration, we had our pilot event of Sweet Sleep "Under the Stars" at Second Baptist Church in Arkadelphia, Arkansas and hosted our first ever water station at the Country Music Marathon in Nashville, Tennessee!

The week for Sweet Sleep was marked with celebrating what God is doing through our work, serving others and spreading the word about Sweet Sleep and our work to provide beds, bedding, nets and Bibles to the world's orphaned and abandoned children.

Thanks to everyone who volunteered last week - including those who ran the marathon and 1/2 marathon as part of Team Sweet Sleep and raised nearly $1500 for beds for orphans while doing it! Thanks Jeff Swords, Michelle Uhri, Katie Stevenson and Hillary Flynn!
