Partner News Free Live Training by Dr. Scott Pace  God has a unique calling for every believer. Helping students discern and navigate theirs is an essential part of discipleship that will enable them to live with gospel purpose and intentionality. Understanding their calling involves discerning their gifts, talents, passions, and God’s strategic plan for their lives. It not only shapes their educational pathway as they prepare for the future, but it will also influence how they approach their relationships, hobbies, studies, and personal walk with Christ during this formative season. Next to understanding their identity in Christ, equipping students to discern and navigate their calling may be the most important aspect of our discipleship ministry in their lives.

These are boys and girls who have been praying for their forever families and have yet to be adopted within their home country or by a family internationally. You will have the support of Christian Adoption Services as well as area churches during these four weeks. You do not have to be ready to adopt in order to be a host family. You simply need to have the heart for what God wants to do through international adoption.Click Here for more information and a video. |
