Helping Orphans

02/20/2010

When it comes to orphan care, there are three different approaches we can consider as a church and as individuals.

orphancare - Orphan Care

 

All Christians are called to advocate for the fatherless (James 1).  So the question isn't, "Am I called to orphan care?" but it's, "How am I called to orphan care?". 

  • Some families are called to adopt. 
  • Others are called to do missions trips to care for orphans. There are orphans around the world who can not be adopted by law, but they still need the presence of Christ, they need groups who will come and love them, sepak the gospel to them, and hug them.
  • There are others who can use financial resources to empower another family to adopt.
