Ok Folks,
If you want to know about me and my family this video says so much!
For many years my family has been concerned with and advocated for children in at risk situations. Through the course of many years we have been blessed beyond all measure to have adopted both domestically and internationally four times.
(Right now we are currently struggling to bring Sophie from Vietnam home before the country closes down. More on that later.)
My mother in order to raise awareness of the growing orphan crisis, created this small video. It is not a disconnected collection of random pictures but real live families who we have been blessed to personally know. If you look close you will also see some of my siblings as well ;-)
This video communicates better then I could the passion that my family has for orphaned and displaced children.
I believe that we are commanded as Christian's to care for these children not asked nicely. This belief sometimes offends people which always astounds me. (I want to say spend some time in a Chinese orphanage or African AIDS clinic and tell me how these beautiful children should not be offended at your selfishness and indifference.)
I do not say this out loud however...
It is my hope that every who possibly can will open there hearts and homes to these children. Those who do soon realize that these children often save you as much as you save them.
