For those who are unaware--This last week a 7 year old boy adopted from Russia was returned to Russia, alone, with a note from his single adoptive mother that she no longer wanted to parent him and was returning him to Russia because they had lied to her.
Due to this incomprehensible act, international adoptions are being affected, especially in Eastern Europe.
So here is some action being taken----
From the Joint Council on International Children's Services:
We Are The Truth – An Adoption Blogger Day: To ensure the world knows about every successful adoption, on Thursday, April 15, 2010 blog about your adoption or the adoption of someone you know. It doesn’t matter if your adoption is with Russia, domestic or otherwise international. Let the world know your truth!
Read more about what they are calling for (especially if you have adopted from Russia) here.
Please repost this on your own blog and spread the word!!!
And hop back over here on Thursday and I will be posting on our amazing experience!!!!
Philippians 4:4-9
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. and the peace of God which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things. The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.
