For my wife and I, Together for Adoption holds a special place in our hearts. Two and a half years ago, we hopped on a plane to Texas to attend Together for Adoption. We had no idea what we were getting ourselves into and we didn’t know very much about the orphan care or the adoption world. All we knew is that a seed had been planted in our hearts. For years, I had been an advocate for child sponsorship organizations, because there was a seed planted in my heart to help the world’s most vulnerable children. Tamara had been a children’s pastor for many years, with a seed ...

Here are two simple ways you could contribute to the needs of the orphan and an adopting family. We talk to so many people that say “ I would love to help, but I’m not sure what I could do.” If that’s you, here are two very simple things. This past weekend, a few volunteers from Southgate Church held two small and easy to organize fundraisers and brought in $775!

The first was a soup fundraiser. The church was asked permission to hold a “by donation” soup and buns lunch after the second service. A handful of people volunteered to bring down a pot ...

Four years ago, Bubba and his wife Angie started the adoption process. After being turned down a couple of times, they finally got the call to adopt a one-month old baby boy from Florida.

Here’s a little story from our home church that had us encouraged this week:

This past Sunday, we announced to Southgate Church that we had just received word from our church-plant in Jamaica that the orphanage they are connected with, New Hope Children’s Home had to turn away three babies because they could not afford the formula and diapers. We were heartbroken by this, as was the congregation, as evidenced by their response to our new sponsorship program. The orphanage currently has 24 children and they can accommodate up to 31 if the finances are there. We laminated ...
