Adoptive Mom to speak at Women of Faith Event

This year, Buckner International is a sponsor of this year's Women of Faith events. Below is a special feature content from one of their event speakers, Lysa TerKeurst. 
 
I put my head against my bedroom wall, closed my eyes, and whispered, "There's no way." 10 years ago, my world collided with what seemed like an impossible invitation from God: adopt two teen boys from war-torn Liberia.
  
No matter how many times I whispered, "there's no way," this nagging sense of possibility wouldn't leave me. It wove its way through every fiber of my being until I stood up and shifted everything I thought my family would be with one weakly whispered, "Yes."
 
Dillon International and Buckner International will have exhibits at Women of Faith 'Believe God Can Do Anything' events:
 
Aug. 2-3 in Oklahoma City, OK
Sept. 13-14 in Anaheim, CA
Sept. 27-28 in Kansas City, MO
Sept. 20-21 in Dallas, TX

LifeSong for Orphans - Liberia Opportunity

Let's be the Hands and Feet of Jesus!



2010 Liberia Video from Lifesong for Orphans on Vimeo.



This week we are inviting our faithful readers and supporters to step up and help us in a time of need for Lifesong Liberia.


Lifesong has partnered with The Master’s Home of Champions orphanage and is providing a loving and safe home to many destitute and abandoned children, some of whom are deaf. We seek to be the hands and feet of Jesus, and are focused on the goal of raising up champions for the good of Liberia and glory of God!


This summer, another orphanage was in dire need, and thanks to an unexpected donation Lifesong was there. Praise the Lord we can help more children! But now, we need help too! We need your help to make sure these children are fed every day! We need your help to care for the fatherless! Will you join us?


70 sponsors in one week is a tall order. We know this. We also know that we serve a big God who has told us that caring for the poor and vulnerable is at the very heart of who He is! We believe we can make this happen! We pray that God will call hearts this week and we trust that you will answer!


Contact us at info@lifesongfororphans.org to commit!
