"Orphan Justice" Book & Conference

I've just finished reading Johnny Carr's book called Orphan Justice - How to Care for Orphans Beyond Adopting.  After serving with the Vulnerable Children's Ministry for 5 years now, this book was a fresh call to continue serving the most vulnerable in our society.  It reminded and affirmed me why I'm involved in orphan ministry, and challenged me to keep moving forward, despite what it may cost me. 
 
After reading this book, I'm even more excited to attend the Orphan Justice Conference next week, and I urge you to attend as well.  Together we really can make a difference in the lives of orphans and vulnerable children!
