Thank you to the Christian Alliance for Orphans for keeping us up to date on the state of things for orphaned children. In this summary there are some great links explaining details and articles by well respected journalists. It breaks our heart to think that in the name of bureaucracy and fear, children are not being placed in permanent families; either domestically or abroad. Praying there is a revival of action in courts near and far to place children in families!
