Organ Donation Awareness Gifts


We may have realized the miracle of organ donation in our own family but our fight for others to realize this gift is far from over.
In order to further raise awareness for Organ and Tissue Donation, I pray you will take the time to visit http://www. angelcove. us and show your support to all of those that have realized the miracle, are still waiting for their miracle, and those that were the miracle!

Hello The Mars Hall,

I am very excited! My first book Passage to Freedom is available for purchase now, from Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk and bookstores worldwide. Passage to Freedom is a guide to happiness and spiritual fulfilment that provides exercises to help readers along the way. These techniques incorporate visualisation, intention, meditation and self-healing. You can find more information on my website at www.dawnmellowship.com. I hope you will decide to purchase the book and I hope that it helps you find the spiritual answers you need.

Thanks for being a myspace friend.
