Only God...

Only God can open the doors to save orphans lives in Eastern Europe; only the Holy Spirit can speak to the hearts of the nationals about adoption.  Obediently we carry Christ’s message about “Adoption And The Gospel”.  We hope you will prayerfully follow us on our journey.  

Is it enough to know that human traffickers have so targeted orphans that 60 to 70% worldwide will fall into their hands?  Their life expectancy will be 8 years or less when they leave the orphanages unless they are adopted.   We want to see as many as possible adopted by Holy-Spirit-filled-families.  

Our message is: through Christ we have been adopted into God’s family, given His Name, and, we will share in the inheritance with Christ.  We were all spiritual-orphans until the Holy Spirit made us truly alive (Rom. 8:15, 8:23, 9:4, Gal. 4:4-5, and Eph. 1:5). God has already prepared local families who want to adopt.  They need their church community to empower and support them with resources and prayer.  Isn’t that what Jesus did for us?

Orphanages have become incubators for the worst kind of human beings (human animals).  Jeremiah 5:26-29 is a message God spoke over these “wicked men who lie in wait”.  “Like a cage with birds, their homes are filled with evil plots.”  These children need us to understand their reality, and to bring remedy to their impending affliction. 

There are nearly 200 million orphans worldwide.  Orphanages are needed short-term, but nothing replaces a Spirit-filled family.  These kids want a mom and dad forever; without which, there is little hope that they will ever know the love of Jesus. 

Eric Henderson and I leave August 27^th for Bucharest, Romania.  We will spend one month in Romania, one month in Bulgaria, and about a week in Kiev, Ukraine.

We need your prayers and support; moreover, these orphans and families need your support.  My personal expenses will be about $6000 with travel.  I’m willing to pay all out of pocket, but I remember how blessed I was when I was sent to Nigeria by many of y ’all.  Many of you empowered locals to build the fish pond.

Only God… knows the real needs.
