Spotlight On A Vendor …..Orlando Harpist Christine MacPhail

June 26, 2014 / Rosie's Nurse corner / Leave a comment

Today’s spotlight is on Christine MacPhail, Orlando Harpist. Christine began playing the harp at age 6 and has been playing professionally in the Central Florida area for over 25 years. She enjoys playing a variety of music of all styles, from classical to contemporary, and always loves learning new songs and adapting them to the harp. When 27 Miracles interviewed Christine and asked why she wanted to get involved with The Gift of Life,her reply was ” I am honored to be helping Rosie to benefit A Story of Faith and Florida Hospital. The story of her son Kaleb is inspirational and would touch anyone’s heart. Rosie and the 27 Miracles Team are continually giving back to the community and I am privileged to be included at her charitable events.” Christine and her harp bless many in the Central Florida area by playing at weddings, charity events and more…..Her music is very inspiring. When Baby Kaleb was born, Christine made a cd for him that to date he still listens to before bed. The music was soothing to him during those long nights of hearing an oxygen concentrator all day and night. He became so used to Christine’s music that when she played at Kaleb’s baby dedication, he immediately turned his head to Christine’s music.

Today’s Spotlight is on Roque Productions

June 8, 2014 / Rosie's Nurse corner / Leave a comment

27 Miracles wants to recognize Andres Roque of Roque Productions. Andres and his team are no strangers to working and giving back to the community. That is in fact how Rosie Moore of 27 Miracles met Andres. She was in need of vendors to work at the 27 Miracles Christmas Extravaganza in downtown Winter Garden. Rosie did not know Andres but they met at a Bridal Show. When Rosie emailed vendors for assistance in this event, Andres was the first to say, I will help. This event was to raise funds and honor the Brides Against Breast Cancer, Toys for Tots and the Boys and Girls Club of Winter Garden. With over 400 plus people attending the event, the night was a success on that cold December 2, 2010 weeknight.

After that Roque Productions has worked with 27 Miracles on various other community events, weddings and Quinces. 27 Miracles’ clients are always happy with the stellar work that they perform.

When we asked Andres why do you do what you do for the community, his reply “If you have the opportunity to get involved with The Gift of Life event, I really encourage you to do so. Over the past 4 years, we have worked with Rosie and the 27 Miracles team on numerous events for great causes. They truly have their community’s best interest at heart and their drive to help others is admirable. We are all called to help our neighbor and the events put together by 27 Miracles have become a great way for us to do so. “

From the planning process to the post event wrap-up, you’ll understand that they are driven to go beyond. Sure, there are lots of companies that provide similar services, but the difference in how they provide these services can only be experienced.

Unsung Hero Gets Recognized

May 31, 2014 / Rosie's Nurse corner / Leave a comment

You might ask what is an unsung hero?

“An unsung hero is a role model whose generous acts of compassion, strength, selflessness, perseverance and, quite possibly, sacrifice make a profound and positive difference on the course of history.” Lowell Milken Center

The other day A Story of Faith and 27 Miracles brought you the story of Glenn Ferguson, a world-famous Caricaturist that is sponsoring The Gift of Life event on September 13 2014. If you missed his story, click on this link https://27miracles.com/2014/05/29/spotlight-on-glenn-ferguson-caricature-artist/

After the overwhelming response from readers that never knew he was a preemie and his dedication to this event, many became supporters of this very important fundraising event by purchasing tickets and becoming sponsors. You can visit our website www.astoryoffaith.com to obtain more details.

Today A Story of Faith and 27 Miracles want to bring you another story on one unsung hero. It is the daughter of Master Bridal Consultant Rosie Moore . After the initial shock that a teenager receives that mom is having a baby, that was the start of a whirlwind change in her young teen age life. Kayla was 14 yrs old when Kaleb was born at 27 weeks weighing only 1lb and 10 oz. A micropreemie born 13 weeks early. Life still had to go on for Kayla despite the fact that her baby brother was clinging to life in the NICU. Many days and nights of schedule changes, homework at the hospital, dinners out on the road and no family fun activities on the weekends due to trips to the hospital. But she quietly helped to be supportive, although never knowing what was really going on.

Life care coaches at the hospital brought Kayla in to see the baby for the very first time in November when he was a little more stable in the step down NICU. It was very shocking for a teen to see such a tiny baby all attached to wires and machines supporting his life. She was given the chance to hold him, but it was much to scary for her.

The weeks and months passed by and Kaleb was finally able to come home. Coming home, that is where more challenges came about. In March 2010, Kaleb came home to be on 18 different medication dosages, oxygen 24/7, apnea monitors at night, 2 types of breathing treatments every four hours, tube feedings every 3 hours, occupational, speech and physical therapists coming to the house daily, 2-3 drs appts every week. Wow life was definitely not normal here . Kayla started to see the care that was involved in taking care of Kaleb. Little by little she learned about his care and treatment.

In June 2010, Rosie, Marcus, Kayla and Baby Kaleb, planned a trip to visit Marcus’ family in NJ. Oh boy with all that Kaleb had going on, that sounds crazy. All the necessary permissions were obtained to carry equipment on the flight. Kaleb was weaned off the oxygen little by little so that he can sustain a 2 hour flight until he would be on the ground again to receive the oxygen. It was an interesting sight at the checkout counter with 8 carry on bags, 6 checked bags, stroller and car seat. For three people and a baby wow, but Kayla helped all the way through with taking care of him. She learned how to do his breathing treatments and how to do his tube feedings and administer his medications.

Kayla feeding Kaleb

Today she is 19 years old and a college student at PBA studying Communications. She is today’s unsung hero as she turned 19 years old yesterday and we remember her today for stepping up to the plate and helping a difficult situation be an easier situation. Kayla helped to take care of Kaleb whenever her parents had to do a wedding or event or just needed some down time to rest or relax.

Spotlight on Glenn Ferguson…..Caricature Artist…

May 29, 2014May 29, 2014 / Rosie's Nurse corner / 2 Comments

Glenn is an award-winning caricature artist/ illustrator residing in Orlando, FL. He has been nominated a Master caricaturist by the International Society of Caricature Artists (after winning the Golden Nosey Award in 2009). His artwork can be seen all over the world.

You might ask yourself, why would a famous artist want to help with an event like the Gift of Life….Here are Glenn’s very own words when he was interviewed….

Glenn Pic 3

“The year is 1973, in April, and I’m removed by C-section from my mother’s womb. My heartbeat is irregular, and my lungs aren’t fully developed, but I’m able to breathe ok. I’m whisked away immediately and placed inside a plastic rectangle. This rectangle becomes my home for the next 6 months.

I never saw my mother. She didn’t get to see me. They didn’t allow her to visit me. They didn’t allow her to name me for 6 months.

I was born with a total weight of 1 pound, 6 ounces. From head to toe I fit inside the palm of an average person’s hand. Doctors feared the worst and were expecting me not to live very long. But they made a home for me in an incubator and cared for me until I was ready to go home in October.

When I was allowed to finally meet my mother, and hear her voice, as you can imagine, I knew I was home. I was monitored constantly, and visited so many doctors for the first year of my life, but I beat all the odds and survived.

Now, in 2014, I’m 41 years old. I’m very healthy, athletic, and thriving beautifully with my fiance’ JoAnn. I grew up small, and I’m a little on the short side at 5′ 7″, but other than that, perfectly fine, normal, and happy. I’m grateful to all the doctors and nurses that helped me survive those first few months, and I have great sympathy and encouragement for anyone who has a premature child. ”

“I am happy to help with this event, the Gift of Life, that will benefit the Walt Disney Pavillion Florida Hospital for Children/Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and the Making of the movie A Story of Faith; because I experienced the same care that all of these unsung heros do every day. It’s because of the amazing and heartfelt care and expertise that were so instrumental in my survival and enduring health those first delicate months of my life that I am here. ” www.glennfergusonarts.com

Glenn Pic 5

It is because of the care of doctors and nurses that work in the NICU and have up to date equipment that babies like Glenn and other babies today can survive. Sometimes medical science is ready to give up, but the babies fight for their lives and some are pretty determined. In 1971 it was unheard of for a preemie to survive. Thank God for Glenn’s doctors and nurses ! Can you imagine in this day and age not being able to see your baby for 6 months? It is hard enough seeing them daily and not being able to bring the baby home.

Glenn Pic 4

This is why The Gift of Life is going to do just that, help raise funds for the Florida Hospital Walt Disney Children’s Pavillion, the NICU department and the Making of the Movie A Story of Faith. Through this movie of love, encouragement and hope, it will show parents and caregivers that they are not alone and that there is hope out there.

Mrs Hebbeler /Mother of the Bride:

My daughter Ivonne had a dream, have a beautiful wedding. She models bridal gowns. She loves weddings. Her fiance proposed and they started the planning.
Then Ivonne was diagnosed with Cancer.
As she battled the sickness, God sent two angels to her life, Minerva from Minerva’s Bridal (bridal store where she models for) and Rosie Moore owner of 27 Miracles. They decided to help Ivonne with the wedding of her dreams.
Rosie Moore was the planner of my daughter’s wedding. She truly has a gift and you can tell she really loves what she does. She is very organized with every detail. The result was absolutely beautiful, flowers, crystals, linens, cakes, invitations, photo booth, coffee station, Cinderella carriage and much more, nothing was missing in my daughter’s dream wedding.
We never imagined for anything to look more beautiful or to be more perfect.
Words cannot describe how thankful I am for making Ivonne and Andrew’s wedding so special and memorable!!

Ivonne defeated the cancer and Rosie made her dream come true!! Thanks Rosie Moore…

She Went Above My Expectations

Rosie was amazing!! She recommended the perfect shoes to dance in all night… which are Angela Nuran shoes… usually heels and comfortable don’t go together but Angela Nuran shoes are comfortable high heel shoes… you can purchase them through Rosie… Rosie took care of everything for me and I was relaxed in the planning process, I never had to run around stressed on my wedding day. If I was getting married again there is no doubt I would have Rosie as my wedding planner again. Highly recommend her services and the shoes!!!

Groom Review….

She did a great job at organizing a very busy wedding day. The time and attention to detail that Rosie and her team take shows how much she loves and takes pride in her job. I would recommend her to future brides and grooms.

Bride

Rosie and her team did a fantastic job at making our wedding magical. We had a Disney themed wedding and she made sure we thought of everything and if we missed it she knew to add it. We were very happy with her service and would recommend her to everyone. She went out of her way to make our dreams come true. She’s even a travel agent and helped us with our honeymoon. Definitely a muti tasker.

Amazing Company To Work With

Rosie Moore is very good at what she does. We have worked with her on many occasions from Weddings to your corporate events. 27 miracles is a company that I would highly recommend to use for all your events.

Great job and we look forward to working with you soon. From Orlando DJ and Lighting.

It Was Great Working With Rosie.

Rosie worked together with my sister to plan the most beautiful wedding day I could have asked for. Rosie, her husband and her assistant were kind, observant and attentive. 27 Miracles has my recommendation! Rosie is a wonderful wedding planner.

July 10, 2013July 11, 2013 / Rosie's Nurse corner / Leave a comment

Today it is with great excitement and joy that 27 Miracles makes this announcement to you!!!!Rosie Moore, Master Bridal Consultant for 27 Miracles, wrote a book called a Story of Faith, in 2012 it was published. Through opportunities in life, she met a movie producer who has directed movies in theatres and took an interest in A Story of Faith. He has offered to produce A Story of Faith in theatres everywhere. But to do this we need everyone’s help. What do we need? We need the financial backing of everyone we know, everyone you know. Together this can be done. As little as 1.00 (less than a cup of coffee or bottle of soda). If 250,000 people each gave 1.00, we could have the movie produced in no time. Please review the link in this message it is the story that inspired this movie http://www.27miraclesbyrosie.com/services/community.phpWho will this benefit? If you have not read the book, take a moment to read it, it is a short story that talks about faith and how having it can help you overcome many challenges in life. It is Rosie’s story of the struggles she encountered in life, the story of baby Kaleb and finally the story of how friends that worked with her in the wedding industry, came together and helped a young mother who was in financial crisis due to medical bills of her preemie baby, have the wedding of their dreams during the Christmas season.

Thank you in advance for your support. Please visit our facebook page as updates will be posted on there. https://www.facebook.com/pages/A-Story-of-Faith/328844927127645

The Traditional Nigerian Engagement of Bukola and Francis

March 23, 2013March 23, 2013 / Rosie's Nurse corner / 3 Comments

27 Miracles started their day bright and early at 5am making the commute to the beautiful Lake Mary Event Center where at 7am the place would be buzzing with vendors ready to start the festivities for Bukola and Francis! Bukola and Francis are from out-of-state but they chose Florida to marry as this is home of Bukola’s father. In Nigeria, the tradition is to have the daughter marry in the village where her father resides. In this instance Florida.

This will be the king chairs where the bride and groom will sit! Thank you to Pinky from Nikun Events and Orlando DJ and Lighting for the backdrop and lighting. The family brought different gift items that signify many things for instance honey for sweetness in the marriage and salt to be the seasoning of the marriage and the world. The Nigerian wedding ceremony is everyone in the family coming together to financially and spiritually support the couple. In lieu of gifts the families supply cash to the couple to help them get started in life. You will see those pictures later on.

Orijanel Hair and Make up started to work on Bukola for her special wedding engagement ceremony that would be taking place.

Everything was coming together preparation wise for Bukola. As she got her head-dress on she took advantage of the quiet morning to take a phone call!

Bukola selected the coral colors for her engagement ceremony as you see in the shoes, fan and purse with traditional gold jewelery to match.

One of the brides friends came to help her with her head-dress so that she was perfect for Frances when he finally would get his bride!

Finally our bride to be is ready to await her grand entrance to the ceremony but while she waited she had some time to pose for some pictures.

The bride’s sister Lolly, looks on as Bukola, her baby sister and the last of the girls, is about to embark on a life time journey called marriage. Lolly was so supportive to Bukola, her and wedding planner Rosie Moore of 27 Miracles were the ones that planned this beautiful wedding together along with Bukola. She was a great maid of honor!

Bukola and Frances Engagement 067 The Ladies are ready for the festivities to start!!! And now it is time for the traditional ceremony to begin. If you have never been to a Nigerian wedding before you will learn after you read this story all the details involved.

The ceremony begins with the reading of the proposal letter from the groom’s family. This proposal letter is presented to the mother of the bride who dances around to present it to the family and her husband. The ceremony starts with a Nigerian spokeswoman that directs the ceremony.

Frances’ family comes in playing the drums and singing as he meets the bride’s family seated below.

The Bride’s father accepts the money that the groom’s family starts to pay out.

So starts the reading for the acceptance of the engagement. Usually read by a member of the Bride;s family.

The Groom’s family below looks on proudly!

Once the Bride’s Family reads the acceptance letter, the groom enters
the room escorted by the men in his family to ask for the bride’s hand
in marriage

If a favorable reply is sent to the grooms family, the groom then comes in with his friends. As the groom enters the room, he drops some money in the room that will help the bride’s family.

The spokeswoman starts to explain to the men and the groom what the next step is.

The groom then kneels before the bride’s family to beg for her hand in marriage along with his male friends.

The groom awaits the bride with anticipation!

And now the moment everyone has been waiting for!!! The bride is coming!! The spokeswoman prays for the bride’s entrance as the guests await her entrance.

The bride gets the final touches before her grand entrance.

Singing the bride in!!!

Here comes the bride with her friends!

The groom’s first look of the bride…

The bride’s entrance!

Once the bride enters with her female friends and is covered with a veil.She goes to her mom and is unveiled and this is where a prayer is said for her.

It is a very emotional time. The veil is placed back on the bride by the mother. At that point she will seek prayers from the groom’s family. It is a very emotional moment for the bride and her family as well as the guests.

The Groom’s family looks on as they get ready to receive the bride to be.

The bride is ready to meet the groom’s family

The mother of the groom wipes a tear with the bride’s hand-made veil…

The bride is accepted by the family of the groom..

Now Bukola is welcomed into the family of Francis and is their new daughter to be…

The happy bride to be…

Meeting the groom….

The groom showers his bride to be in dollars….

The groom accepts the bride and carries his bride to be to her chair so that he starts to take care of her from this moment…

The Bride has a special gift for the groom, a matching head-dress…

Praying together…

The Maid of Honor, sister of the bride, shares some words of wisdom for the happy couple.

The Bride to be looks on to see what the special gift Francis her groom has for her…

Bukola’s family gifts are yellow with accents Francis’ Gifts are Blue
They are not opened there. Bukola will select the Bible, that has the
engagement ring tied to it.

They are officially engaged!!

The happy Bride to be shows off her beautiful emerald ring …

As the groom shows his affection to his bride to be..

It is now time to cut the cake and feed it to each other. It is a tradition where they each feed it to each other, including the drink and wiping the person’s mouth. It is symbolic of how the husband and wife have to take care of each other.
