On November 12th & 13th, we are hosting an Orphan Conference called "Heart For The Fatherless" at our church (Calvary Chapel Tri-Cities). It is a free conference and we are also offering Free Childcare. This is our 2nd year doing this conference. We are really excited to see God's hand at work through everything. We feel priviledged to have Jason Weber from Hope for Orphans (a ministry of Family Life) to be our keynote speaker. We can't wait to hear the message that he has to give. There is so much more going on and we are super excited about the whole thing! If you live in the Northwest, you just might want to join us - I'd love to meet you!! Visit our website at: www.cctcorphanministry.org or here

You know... when i look back over the past 5 years and see the work that God has done in our lives and in our hearts - it is truly amazing! I would have NEVER imagined that i would be so passionate about what we are doing now. I am SO very thankful that i listened to that "little voice in the back of my head" (ie the Holy Spirit). That we took a step of faith in obedience to the will of God. The will that He has for our lives. I think that so many times people don't. Life is to short and I don't want to live it with regret. Do you? So, I encourage to take a little tiny step and see how much it is a blessing for you and Him and others around you. Do it before it's too late. Whatever it is... Just do it. Take a step...

I personally challenge you to attend the conference with an open heart and an open mind. Then pray about what God's will is for you. Is it adoption? Is it foster care? Is it part-time (respite) foster care? Is it supporting others in adoption & foster care? Is it orphan care - sponsoring children in orphans in other countries? Is it visiting an orphanage? You might want to come and explore...

Hope to see you soon...
