Are you thinking about adoption? Well, in case you missed my post on Friday HERE, my husband and I feel called to adopt, and we have just begun our family’s journey. It’s been so exciting to be praying through this journey and watching God move in ways that are just amazing! As we get started on doing our research and finding out everything we can about all the different options that are available for adoptive families, I was so excited to see that Summit 9, the annual summit of the Christian Orphan Alliance, is coming to my area.
Whenever I meet people who have adopted, I am just full of questions for them. I’m looking at Summit 9 as a place where I am going to be able to meet and talk to a lot of people who can answer all my different questions. Plus, they have a line up of great speakers that I am really looking forward to hearing: Randy Alcorn, David Platt, Michele Bachman, Dennis Rainey, and more!
Summit 9 is definitely the place to be if you have a heart for orphans and children living in poverty and if you are interested in any part of the Christian orphan care movement. This summit is not just for those wanting to adopt. One thing I’m learning is that there are many ways to care for orphans–besides domestic and international adoption, there’s foster care, along with lots of ways to be involved in the humanitarian relief efforts for children who are living in poverty all over the world. The Christian Orphan Alliance leads the way in helping people understand those needs and then helping them find a place where they fit in and can help meet some of those needs.
