“I will seek what was lost and bring back what was driven away, bind up the broken and strengthen what was sick…”
— Ezekiel 34:16

The Least of These

Around the world there are millions of orphans growing up without families.

We work with adoption agencies to advocate for their waiting children, orphans who are difficult to find an adoptive family for due to some special need or circumstance. You can see the full list—including children from all over the globe—on our Waiting Children page, and you can see some of their faces below from our Instagram feed.

As we start this new year, we are praying that God will raise up more families to adopt waiting children around the world so that they will no longer be alone. We look forward to seeing which children will be adopted in time for next Christmas!
