Summit VI Pre-Conference Seminar

The Christian Alliance for Orphans and the Lausanne Congress are teaming up to offer a special pre-Summit event in Minneapolis, MN on Wednesday, April 28, 2010.

This event is one of the 12 “Lausanne Conversations” hosted across America this year. These events offer American believers a chance to participate in building toward “Cape Town 2010,” where Christians from virtually every nation on earth will gather to discuss and set priorities on the vital issues facing the global church today.

The Minneapolis "Lausanne Conversation" will center on the Biblical call to care for the fatherless and other vulnerable children. Panel discussion will explore strategic steps that churches, ministry organizations, foundations and the broader body of Christ can take in partnership with each other to meet the physical and spiritual needs of children worldwide through the local church.

“Conversation” Panelists:

• Jedd Medefind, Christian Alliance for Orphans (Moderator)
• Doug Birdsall, Lausanne Committee on World Evangelism
• Vonette Bright, Campus Crusade for Christ
• Sharen Ford, Colorado Department of Human Services
• Peter Pretorius, Joint Aid Management
• Rich Van Pelt, Compassion International
• Princess Kasune Zulu, Author - Warrior Princess

No special registration is needed for this pre-Summit event. All Summit attendees and community guests are welcome.

The Reber Family Adoption Journey

It's always interesting to see how God is moving in other people's lives. Below is a link to a video about a family who lives in the Aurora area who sensed God was calling them to care for orphans by adopting some into their own family. Today they are proud parents of three - one from the USA, one from China and one from Haiti. Click on the video below to watch a short video of God's story in their lives.
