Ethiopian Adoption

This is a video of our 3 sons who we are adopting from Ethiopia. Caleb, Josiah, and Noah should be coming home towards the end of July. The video is made up of pictures and short videos that we have received since November.

There are no Muslim children for adoption virtually anywhere in the world. Kudos to a people who regard their children and grandchildren as a sacred trust. An orphaned Muslim child remains in the family with full care.

I'm not sure where you received your information but it is totally incorrect. I have seen many Muslim children enter into adoptions. Many of them are even adopted by Christian families. Aids, poverty, and starvation affect Muslim families as any other people.

As an adoptive parent, I am quite touched by your video. God bless!

Thank you - I am still amazed at the response to the video. We are still getting emails and encouraging notes from friends just like you across the nation who we have never met. Thanks for your encouragement.

I just watched your video and now I'm bawling! I have always wanted to adopt an infant from Ethiopa, but now I'm considering adopting an older child as well. Thank you and God Bless you and your family!

Wow. I just got back from ethiopia and there are sooo many orphans that need good, loving Christian homes. I want to adopt from there too!

This was just beautiful. Had my eyes watering up. Thank you for opening your home and hearts to those little boys. I pray God will continue to bless you and your family. Stay under the wings of the Almighty.

how are your sons?

[HelenadeTroya1979]

Ohh! I'm crying so much when i saw the video. The story is very sad. Poor son's mother, she is too generous...(sorry but my english is bad)

When there are no resources to care for someone and little govt. infrastructure to care for the sick, poor and dying? They WERE cared for until those couldn't anymore. That horse of opinion shouldn't be so high.

Make sure you have support with the local Ethiopian community. Make friendships from the heart. G-d bless you.
