Orphan Sunday, November 4, 2012
During a time of year when we remember all of the wonderful bounty we have to be thankful for, Orphan Sunday is a time to help those who are fatherless and forgotten in society (but never forgotten or forsaken by the Heavenly Father), who do not even have a family to be thankful for...
Consider adopting a child - it is not as undoable as it may appear.
Consider mentoring the fatherless in your community.
Consider being a foster parent.
Consider helping others adopt, foster, or mentor with financial, prayer, and emotional support.
When you are done considering - take action!
Not a single orphan can be helped by sending warm and happy thoughts their way... we need to let the intent of our hearts direct our hands.
Talk to me if you are thinking of adoption... or fostering... or mentoring.
I can direct you on how to take the first steps.
Talk to me if you would like to help others help the fatherless.
If you have a heart to help us in our adoption, here are some ways to help change an orphan into our son or daughter.
If you have a heart to help any other sort of adoption, fostering, or mentoring, I can connect you to many people who are stepping out in faith in many different ways to reach out to the orphan.
Remember to consider... and then take action! Make the heart of God visible!
