A Quote from Steven Curtis Chapman - August 2008 posted on CNN
“If only 7 percent of the 2 billion Christians in the world would care for a single orphan in distress, there would effectively be no more orphans. If everybody would be willing to simply do something to care for one of these precious treasures, I think we would be amazed by just how much we could change the world.”

We can each do something, whether it is donating, adopting, fostering, mentoring, visiting orphans or supporting families that have taken in orphans. You can change the world for an orphan

Emma’s Dream

wowcio — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 15:43:14 +0000

Emma is an active adoption advocate at her tender age of 8 years old. Emma prays daily for “God to find mommy’s and daddy’s for all the children of this world”. The miracle here is that Emma is an extremely shy and non-verbal child, but her love for God enabled His Light to shine through and this was fortunately captured on camera.

We invite you to join Emma and her family in this prayer that every child be found by their forever loving family! For more inspiring videos, visit the Community at WOW Check It Out!

Thank you for watching!
