Adopting For Life Conference- Friday & Saturday, February 26-27th 2010 from Southern Seminary on Vimeo.

We’ll be presenting at a conference on adoption entitled, “Adopting for Life”. You may be wondering whether this will be a conference about the doctrine of adoption or “real” adoption. Well, one of the things that we’ll be discussing is the fact that you can’t talk about the one without talking about the other. Read more here.

Lifesong Ukraine Orphan Choir

A special update from Denis, the Lifesong Ukraine director -

As you know 5 years ago we have started an orphan choir at Loubetin orphanage. Many kids went through a special music training and were taught on how to praise our Saviour through music. It included both individual and group lessons. Our choir visited many churches in our area as well as in other cities of Ukraine. Also, it did participated in numerous contests and festivals both in Kharkov and many other places in our country. Our choir – ‘Love and Hope’ did receive special award of our Governor and diploma of UA Parliament. We are very thankful to have such tool to share our goals with other believers and motivate them to be involved in this ministry. It has been a great testimony of many State level officials and other orphanage directors where they heard our choir praising the Lord.”
