May China Waiting Children Program Overview
Congratulations to the 6 families who received referral matches through China’s waiting children program during the month of May! Referrals received were both boys and girls and included both young children as well as older children. We are very excited to announce that “Tylerâ€, the 13 year old boy who was our prayer focus last month, has now joined his forever family. Tyler’s adoption was completed a few days before his 14th birthday and we want to thank each of you who prayed for his adoption and for his forever family.
We continue to be blessed and honored to match families very quickly with referrals. Families open to unrepaired conditions- including cleft lip and palate, can be matched almost immediately upon joining the program, as long as their dossier is ready. Paper-chasing families can still be matched on a limited basis until their dossier is ready. Families who are open to adopting children, boys and girls, with special needs or a healthy older child are invited to email waitingchildren@awaa.org.
There are many referrals of children available for adoption on the CCAA’s shared system. We continue to try and place as many of these children into homes as possible and are thankful for families who participate in this program. Please continue to join us in prayer for more families to come forward and for these children to find their forever families!
