It is not just a "nice" idea that we care for the widow, the lonely and the orphan. It is a mandate in God's word.
James 1:27 says - Religion that pleases God the Father must be pure and spotless. You must help needy orphans and widows and not let this world make you evil.

Did you catch that - we MUST - help needy orphans and widows.

Welcome Child is an adoption/orphan ministry at Timberline Church in Fort Collins, CO.
Our Vision:
Loving the Fatherless as the Father has loves us.
Our Purpose:
Sharing God's Heart for Adoption and Orphan Care Ministry within our church and our community.
I have never had a blog and want to use this blog to advocate for the needs of the widow, the lonely and the orphan.
God is calling us to be obedient - How will we respond?
