Church Adoption Funds | more than just "our church"...

The Church at Battle Creek in the Tulsa, OK area has luanched the Adopt(ed) Church Adoption Fund, as they live out the culture of orphan care & adoption. 

Battle Creek has an abundance mentality in the way they've set up their Church Adoption Fund - the funds are available certainly for couples from their congregation who feel the call of adoption, but didn't stop there. They had the wisdom and abundance mentality to use this Fund to come alongside other committed Christian adoptive families in the Tulsa vicinity (regardless of where they went to church).

That's exactly what they've done with the Baker family, providing them with an Adoption Matching Grant, out of the Adopt(ed) Fund @ TCABC...

 

 

Larry and Ahna Baker have felt the calling to adopt, Ivan, from Eastern Europe. Their pastor writes “They are devoted to the task of raising their children in a positive and God-honoring way; and they have each shown a willingness to sacrifice personal material comfort in order to provide and care for their family.”

After a six-week Bible study at their church, Larry and Ahna became certain God was giving them “details of His plan and purpose for our lives, and adoption was a major focal point”.   Larry says, “I believe that Ahna and I are uniquely crafted to adopt Ivan and be his parents, and that he was uniquely crafted to ultimately be our son, regardless of the geography or earthly circumstances involved.”
