Yesterday morning I had the joy of attending the first meeting for the Carolina Christian Alliance for Orphans (Upstate South Carolina). The goal of the group is to gather evangelical churches, ministries and organizations with a heart for orphan care, adoption and foster care and to encourage more to happen!
I am so encouraged by this and the formation of other groups like this around the country. On my way home I talked to an adoptive mother from Maryland who said she is apart of a similar group.
I know of other Alliances in Dallas, Houston, Nashville, Kansas City, Delaware, Minneapolis, Little Rock, Raleigh, Winston-Salem, and Charlotte.
It makes me ask two questions –
1.) I wonder how many other’s there are around the country?
2.) Might God be calling you to be the spark to pull together a group like this?
