Okay, so I meant to post these earlier, but I couldn't remember how I'd posted the Hannah's Hope video...anyway here are some other videos that prompted us to strike out on advocating for the orphan! Remember to pause my music at the bottom of the page first so you can hear the videos! :)

About this blog

Welcome to our blog! Thanks for dropping by and visiting us! This blog was created for those of you who wish to follow along with us in our journey as we answer God's call to adoption. Ultimately it is our opportunity to rise up and do what we can to fulfill and make known to others the mandate of James 1:27 - "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after the orphans and widows in their distress and to keep onself from being polluted by the world."
