For the Sake of One

You’ve seen the faces on TV: faces of teary-eyed orphans begging for your help. You flip the channel, you try to look away, but they’re still there.
Realistically, though, how much could you do for the world’s lonely children? What’s the point of letting your heart be drawn out by a situation you can’t change? It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the overflow of need in the world. You aren’t its savior. So then what can you do?
Here’s a suggestion: Help one. Adopt one. Foster one. Focus on one. It may not change the world, but it will change that child’s world.
November is National Adoption Month. Nov. 17 is National Adoption Day. It’s a good time to consider bringing a new blessing into your life.
The Buckner Adoption Network is a Christ-center ministry that offers several adoption services designed to fit families’ adoption and foster care needs.
Buckner services include international and domestic adoption services as well as foster-to-adopt opportunities and birthmother services.
International adoption services offers families the opportunity to bring home children and babies from abroad to the United States. Children from abroad are unlikely to be adopted within their own culture. Because these children lack families to guide and assist them, they are on their own at age 16, with little or no vocational or educational skills. International adoption would be a good way to help one child find hope for the future.
Buckner domestic adoption services offers Texas families domestic infant adoption services, foster-to-adopt and TDFPS adoption services.
Domestic infant adoption services place newborns with Christian couples, usually straight from the hospital. Buckner works with birthmothers during pregnancy to determine a plan for the baby’s future. If she chooses adoption, she chooses the adoptive family. Then she and the family together work out the relationship they will have before and after the baby is born.
Buckner’s birthmother connection allows Buckner to work with birthmothers to provide education about adoption, open adoption and a birthmother’s role in her child’s life after placement; give her tools to cope with the grief in making the adoption decision; help prepare her for giving birth;allow her to look at all the families waiting to adopt; and support her through counseling and support groups with other birthmothers.
The Buckner foster-to-adopt services offer the opportunity to adopt the children who are being fostered by a family. For more information about adoption or supporting our adoption programs, contact us at adoption@buckner.org or 1-866-236-7823.
