Hi all. Sorry for not blogging the last few days, I left Michigan Friday morning and spending the weekend with dear friends in Mississippi. In light of that fact, here are multiple ideas of how to support orphan and foster care ministries.
1. Make a donation to a family who is in the process of adopting. The costs are overwhelming and sometimes are the one reason people do not adopt. That is so hard to hear. Let's help people who want to grow their family.
2. Offer a date night to a family with is in the adoption process (or post adoption) or foster care.
3. Send a note to a child whose family is adopting. Being a child watching your family walk through the adoption is hard and at times hurtful. Make sure they know they have an important part to play in their family.
4. Educate yourself. Watch these videos and talk about them to people. http://vimeo.com/channels/833231

Have fun being Jesus to the families you reach out to.
