Adoption Mission August 2015


Long Silence…Great News!!!

I am preparing to travel to Eastern Europe with Eric Henderson, a missionary with Home For Good Foundation ( www.hfgf.org).  Travel date: late August through the end of October, 2015.

We will go to Germany, Romania, Bulgaria, and possibly the Ukraine.  The mission is to speak to churches and church leaders about empowering adoptions through their communities.  Many parents are willing to adopt, but it’s expensive and they may not have the resources or space.  We will be asking these churches to embrace this need by asking everyone to step-up, in any ways they can help, both tangible and intangible.  It takes a community of believers to make a difference with the growing need of unwanted children.  Most of these children will never know the Love of Jesus without Christ-following parents who are willing to give them a legal and secure place in their family.  Many families will never know this joy without the Church’s willingness to be corporately involved.

We were adopted by God our Father through the redemptive work of Jesus.  We have been given a new name and we are seated with Christ in Heaven. Eph. 2:6.  These kids want nothing more than to have a mom and dad.  Orphanages fill a temporary need, but can never replace a family.

More than 60% of all orphans worldwide will die within 6 years after being released from an orphanage.  We can make a difference.  This is evangelism from the deepest place in our Father’s heart.

I will need your support in prayer, share, care, and giving.  I will be gone more than two months.  Anything you can do to help is appreciated.  I have a missions account that makes your gift tax deductible (ask your accountant for details and see donate page).

Blessings are found only through our Lord Jesus Christ!
