"our plans" vs. "His plans" 

wow...powerful note from Roland & LaNae Sanchez.  We had the privilege of helping to remove the financial barriers through a Lifesong Adoption Grant/Loan


Dear Lifesong,

A year ago we set out on our adoption journey with plans to adopt a boy to 'round out our family'. Shortly thereafter, however, our agency asked to consider twin deaf girls...We wrestled in our hearts for months. Could we let go of our plans and embrace what the Lord had for us?

Would we follow where God was so clearly leading?

By God's grace, we traded our dreams for His...

Thank You, Lifesong, for being a tool that God used to make it possible.

Joy is shining through

A little glimpse at the children through these pics...

Several of the older girls are attending 2year and 4 year nursing colleges.  You can't miss their smiles!

They are happy to be a part of the Lifesong-India family -- and it shows!

the life of an outcast

"...these deformed hands receiving some money tell a story from a present chapter in this leper's life, which could be entitled "Outcast" The first chapters are known only by the leper and God. We can only guess what his life was once like.

Was he a child when the patches first appear on his skin?

Perhaps his parens were wealthy or poor. Was he an illiterate poor farmer or was he a schoolteacher, a doctor, or a merchant?

It wouldn't have mattered. He would've been forced to leave his village and his family...leaving his wife and children."


Lifesong-India has the privilege and opportunity to love him, help meet some of his basic needs today...
