Threshold Ministries is a Christian non-profit organization working in
Linjiang, China. Linjiang is located in Jilin province in Northeast China
on the border of North Korea. This is an area of China that is extremely
poverty stricken. Threshold has set up many programs that benefit the
people of Linjiang and surrounding areas. Child sponsorship programs provide
tuition and books so a child can attend school. Sponsorship money also
provides the children with clothing, food and medicine when needed. Threshold
has programs that furnish cows and chickens to families which provide
the family with transportation, plowing power, milk, eggs, offspring to
sell for profit, and (in the end) meat. The greatest accomplishment that
Threshold has achieved thus far is building an orphanage which opened in October 2004. Please go to Threshold’s website http://www.tmihope.org.to

print I will send an email to you and give you instructions on how to make payment directly to Threshold Ministries if you are paying with a check or money order. If you have paid with a credit card your transaction will be processed through Threshold Ministries' credit card service, not Born in Mommy's Heart's service.
Threshold's website is not yet equipped to handle the distribution
of the prints so for now the print is displayed on my website, however,
payments are made directly to Threshold Ministries. Born in Mommy's Heart only
provides information and distribution of the print.
A few people
sent emails and made the comment that the mother depicted in the print
did not look like them because the mother has such light hair. They asked
if it was possible to have another print made with a mother who had darker
hair. I couldn’t possibly ask the artist Betty Wick for another
donated print so a compromise was made. The original print has been altered
via a graphic arts program so we can now offer you two different choices
of hair color for the mother. Betty Wick has given approval to alter the
print in this manner. Since this version of the print has been digitally altered it is not considered an original print. There are no signed and numbered prints for this version.
