Praise the Lord! | Sept, 2021

MONTHLY UPDATE

 

The Room to Bloom team has been busy! Because of your generosity, we have sent four families substantial grants to help cover the costs of the adoptions. We look forward to sharing these family stories in Plain Values in the coming year. This is far too wonderful not to share: a set of twin boys—both with Down syndrome—were born a few weeks ago down South, and a very lucky young family dashed to their side. Please pray for strength and health for both boys and the family. As of this writing, they were still in the NICU packing on the pounds! Thank you so much for joining us on this wonderful journey— what a joy it is to watch the Lord work!

 

Room to Bloom Logo

Room to Bloom’s mission is to promote the beauty of adoption and to ascribe dignity to people with Down syndrome and other special needs. We do this by partnering with organizations that are dedicated to orphan care and adoption advocacy, strengthening families who have children with special needs, and giving a voice to the vulnerable.
