About Me

Please join us to support a brave little girl in the fight of her life. Julia (Juls) Stone was recently diagnosed with and will BEAT stage four Ewing Sarcoma, a rare form of childhood bone cancer. She is a sweet and spunky little girl with a great deal of spirit. Her greatest champions are her mom and dad - Richie and Rachel. She is part of a loving Christian family made up of Richie, Rachel, 3 adopted children (Mackenzie, Ally, and Andrew) and two biological children (Julia and Ahnika). The family lives in southern Missouri and must travel to Children’s Hospital in St. Louis for Juls’ treatments. The medical and travel costs will be enormous so Team Juls is lending support in any way possible. We are rallying together to provide prayers, well-wishes and fundraising events. We aim to lend spiritual and emotional support and to ease the financial impact of medical/travel expenses for Juls' family during this tough time. Please join the fight with Team Juls!
There are a several ways to lend your support for Juls, so please reference the How You Can Help tab for more information. Thank you for your prayers all the support!

Big benefit day - 5K, BBQ, oh my!

Specific prayer request of yesterday: Blessings on everyone taking part in the benefits and those who continue to pray for this family across the world.

From Momma:
-Today was so amazing!! I am so excited I got to go spend the day at the Great Reflections benefit and Juls came up for a few hours! I cannot say thank you enough to everyone. It was a community effort and it amazes me how blessed I am.

From Grandpa David:
-Today was truly a blessing from God. A community coming together in support for Julia and our family. I am proud to be a part of such a great community and blessed to be Julia's Paw Paw. The day started early and wow the number of people for the 5K was amazing and how fast some of them finished was unbelievable, then it was on to the rest of the days activities, great food lots of vendors, and silent auctions items that went beyond anyone's expectations. The best part was seeing Julia there enjoying herself. By the end of the day we had a lot of tired wonderful people that I can't thank enough for all the hard work. A special thanks to Erika & Rob for putting all this together and allowing us to be a part of it.
