Just think of it...

A sobering statistic: In 2006 there were 127,489 children in the United States of America in the foster care system available for adoption. The same year there were 302,461 churches in this land of ours. If one person from only half of these churches would welcome a child into their home, think of the impact made for the fatherless in our country.

adoption is a wonderful thing... 60% of my personal children are adopted! it is a thing best entered into advisedly and cautiously... but once a family has the go-ahead from all concerned, and most importantly, from the *Lord,* it is an incredible gift. all of my children have added something unique and precious to my life and growth... i hope i've added something to theirs as well;)

And if every Christian family would adopt a child there would be no orphans. ;)
