PRAYER: Father, thank You that You reached out to us, through Christ, when we were orphaned and all alone and adopted us into Your family, gave us a name and a forever home with You! Help us reach out with Your love to boys and girls who have no home and provide the love and nurture that they need to grow and flourish in You. Thank You for organizations like the CALL who provide training and care for foster families who answer Your call to provide foster care for children who so desperately need it. Thank You for those families who adopt children in foster care and show the world the greatest example of what You have done for us! We offer up this prayer to You… until no child is waiting! Amen.
