Wait No More: Finding Families for California’s Waiting Kids


Wait No More: Finding Families for California’s Waiting Kids
Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."– Matthew 19:14
There are 127,000 children in America’s foster care system waiting for adoptive families.
On Saturday, September 19th, you and those from your church are invited to join others who love and care about children for a very special event. Wait No More is a conference designed to encourage families to start the process to adopt California’s waiting children.
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. – James 1:27
California Family Council and Focus on the Family, along with adoption agencies throughout the state, will join the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services and Orange County Social Services to encourage Christians to heed the call of God and open their hearts and homes to these precious children.
You’re Invited! The event will take place at Calvary Chapel, Downey on Saturday, September 19th from 1 to 5 p.m. We encourage you to attend this important life-changing event. The conference is free, but attendees need to pre-register. Click here to register.
“Our message is simple,” said Kelly Rosati, senior director of the Sanctity of Human Life division at Focus on the Family. “California’s waiting kids deserve permanent homes. If even a portion of California’s more than 10,000 churches got involved, this problem could be solved.”
Focus on the Family President Jim Daly knows what it feels like to be an orphan. After his mother died and his stepfather walked out, Jim and his siblings were left alone. Watch this video in which Jim shares his heart behind Focus on the Family's Orphan Care Initiative.
Please plan to attend Wait No More: Finding Families for California’s Waiting Kids on Saturday, September 19th from 1 to 5 p.m. at Calvary Chapel, Downey. The conference is free, but attendees need to pre-register. Click here to register.
