My mom designed an Adoption Awareness Month display at the New Berlin Library in Wisconsin. Over 30 years ago my mom and dad adopted two of my siblings, one domestically, and one from Vietnam. Their pictures, along with pictures of my girls are in the display. One of the library staff members saw my mom creating the display and asked if her son, who was adopted from Korea, could be included. Great job Mom!

AV4HC at Family Christian Bookstore
Yesterday, Dina Ackermann and I had an amazing opportunity. Family Christian Bookstore allowed us to create awareness for orphans.
In honor of National Adoption Awareness Month, we had a table set up in the front of the store. We had several resources available for people to browse, as well as an opportunity to greet the customers and share with them ways they can participate.
We are so thankful to Family Christian Bookstores for partnering with us, and making this possible. We were also able to help them sell their "Barnabas Bears". If you purchase a bear for $10.00, you get one, and one goes to an orphan or vulnerable child somewhere in the world. To learn more about their ministry go to www.jamesfund.org.
God has really opened doors, that just one year ago we did not know were possible, we only had, passion, dreams, and a desire to follow God’s will. Please continue to pray for us as we seek the direction God wants us to take next. We are excited about the journey, and this past year has given us invaluable experience that will only make us stronger going forward.
