Adopted

November is National Adoption and Orphan Awareness Month.  We participated in our church's special Sunday service.  The choir sang "We are the Children of God"...Adoptive families came up on stage during the song.  Some were children and some were adults that had been adopted.  At the end everyone revealed their "adopted" T-shirts, including the entire choir.  (It was really cooler than I can explain in words)  The idea came from this 3rd Day Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6jO7xhU_Pw

We were honored to be a part of this event.

 We had several booths in the lobby for people to get more info on sponsorships and adoption aid. 
We showcased, An Orphan's Wish, Show Hope and TX Foster Care.

Later that evening we hosted an Adoption Forum where families could come get more information on many different types of adoption.  From Fostering, Older child, International, to Sibling adoption.  We hoped to have 3 - 4 families participate.  But we ended up with about 80 adults.  It was an awesome day for sure.
