Adoption
Embracing Family
Many families within the church are at various stages of the adoption process. Because adoption and orphan care have unique challenges, our vision is to provide support and networking opportunities for adoptive families to discuss issues unique to their situation with like-minded individuals. These discussions could be broad in scope as well as specific for parents in similar circumstances. Parents who are further along in the journey of raising adopted children will seek to provide valuable insight to those who are at earlier stages of the journey.
