The Power of Testimony
One of the most remarkable aspects of the Christian life is being able to witness God working in and through the lives of our fellow believers.

Are You Labeled?
We all carry aspects of our identity that are evident to those around us, signifiers of who we are and what we’re about. Some things are within our control, and some are not. For the children our partner homes in India, Russia, and Kenya have brought into their care, the word “orphan” might as well be tattooed across their foreheads.

Audacious hope for your new year
For me, New Year’s has never been that significant or exciting, apart from the excuse to eat junk food and spend time with family and friends. I definitely never put much spiritual importance on the holiday. Last year, however, I experienced a different kind of New Year celebration.

God with Us
May the glorious fact that God is with us be your encouragement and peace this Christmas season and always.
Why Families?

Make an Orphan’s Future Brighter
Today, I’d like to invite you to both assist an orphan AND support a caregiver by contributing to a child’s education. Your donation not only helps break a generational cycle of poverty for the child, but also communicates to his caregivers that we’re in their corner, cheering them on as they care for some of the world’s most vulnerable children.
We’ve made communicating those vital truths pretty easy.
