Thanks to our friend Alida, we just found out today that November is National Adoption Month! On that note, we would like to share a great message with you from Rick Warren, of Saddleback Church, talking about the plight of the orphan, and what we can do to help…. Happy listening!
“Rick Warren, pastor of the widely acclaimed Saddleback Church in Southern California, tells Dennis Rainey why the Body of Christ should be concerned about the plight of the orphan.”

Our family has also been very inspired by Rolland and Heidi Baker of Iris Ministries. They are leading an amazing work helping the poor and orphaned of Mozambique…. check them out here: www.irismin.org
(If interested, we recommend their book about their ministry, called “There is Always Enough“.)

Also, check out this great message on the spirit of adoption from our friend in Kansas City, Kelsey Bohlender:
