November - Adoption Awareness Month

November is Adoption Awareness Month. I've found a great website called "Voice of the Orphan" with Adoption Awareness and Resources. It's a team of FamilyLife, Focus on the Family and Shaohannah's Hope. These are some credible, high quality organizations that will be able to shed alot of light on adoption.

When we did the interview for the Advocate Article, I had said that there are 30 million orphans available for adoption worldwide. Well, "Voice of the Orphan" states that the United Nations counts over 143 million!

Shaohannah's Hope is Steven Curtis Chapman's organizatioin. They adopted from China through America World Adoption Agency, the same agency we used. He created a Adoption Grant Program for financial assistance for adoption.

Some of the fine folks from the HPC Production Team came by this week and interviewed Jada, Brandi and me for a spot that will be airing at all 4 services November 25th & 26th for Adoption Awareness Month.


Our next FREE Adoption Workshop at HPC will be: Saturday, December 9 at the Annex Campus Suite G, from 8:00am - 12:00pm. Drinks and snacks provided.

This will be Jada's first workshop!!
