A Prayer/Pledge of Responsibility for Children Adapted from
Ina J. Hughes We pray (accept responsibility) for children

Searching for her long lost father became really
simple for April Becker-Antoniou - all it took was

At the beginning of our adoption process, we
had someone ask us why we didn't just go
into foster care. There are A LOT of children in the foster care system... waiting for families... some just on a short term basis. This isn't what God was calling US to do, but it could be what God is calling ...

I wonder...when it was 10 days before I
met God and He adopted me, was HE this
excited? I wonder if His stomach did flips and He got tears in His eyes when He thought about holding me for the first time. I wonder if His heart ached when He thought about my life without Him as my Daddy. I ...
