11 Orphans Rescued in 2011...WE GOTCHA!!!
We are so honored. humbled. privileged. that God allows us to play a small part in helping adopting families raise the money that they need to bring their children home!
For those who are new around here, we support adopting families through our {Chosen Child} Adoption Ministry - giving them the entire proceeds from all {Chosen Child} fit bands and half loops that are sold during their designated fundraising month.
We partner with Cap Creations, who donates $10 from every Chosen Necklace sold, to our adopting families during their designated month of fundraising.

In 2011 alone, we helped bring 11 children home to their forever families!!!
Sing to God, sing praise to His name, extol Him who rides on the clouds---His name is the Lord---and rejoice before Him. A father to the fatherless, a defender of the widows, is God in His holy dwelling! {Psalm 68:4-5}

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in His sight. In love He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will---to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the One He loves. {Ephesians 1:3-6}

I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. {John 14:18}
