National Adoption Month

Today alone, 5,760 children will become orphans. Of those children, only 1 out of every 56 will ever see a home or a family. Every 2.2 seconds, another orphan, one who has never known a home, has never known a family, has never known love from a mother or a father, "ages out" of his or her orphanage and is sent out into the world without a home.

November is National Adoption Awareness Month. I imagine that--for most Americans-- adoption doesn't enter the framework of their plans. Adoption is reserved for those who can't have biological children.

If you know anyone who might even be open to the possibility of adoption (infertile or not), do not hesitate to have them contact us. We'd love to talk with them and answer any questions.

In the end, adoption is a beautiful statement to the world, and it has the power to speak volumes about what true Christianity is about: that God is a lover. And He loves us so much that He was unwilling to let us sit as orphans, without a home, without knowing what unconditional love is like.
