The Little Adoption Movie

Five and a half years ago, our world changed forever when God tapped us to travel halfway around the world to adopt a teenage girl we had never met. But as much as our world changed, her world changed even more as she received the fulfillment of her greatest wish–a family! We can wholeheartedly say that the joy has been every bit as much ours as hers!

The hardest thing to do was to leave the others behind in the orphanage, the children who begged for someone to please find them a family (see The Director’s Heart). Last Christmas, our biological daughter wrote a song that expressed the longing in their hearts and it became the spark which led to the creation of a short film, with the help of family and dear friends. The six minute film is finally finished and we would like to share it with you. . . .But be warned: your world may never be the same!

WE ARE CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES WITH THE UPLOADING OF THE EMBEDDED VIDEO ON THIS SITE. HOWEVER, THE VIDEO SHOULD PLAY WITHOUT DIFFICULTY ON THE VIMEO WEBSITE AT All I Want for Christmas on Vimeo. If you are interested in obtaining a free copy of the DVD, please contact us.

For the sake of the souls of the children left behind in orphanages, or passed from foster home to foster home, all over the world, would you help us spread this little adoption movie as far and wide as possible by as many means as possible? Maybe you know someone who knows someone who knows someone who needs to see it! And maybe someone who you’ll never know this side of heaven will be adopted, not only by an earthly family, but into God’s family, too (see God’s Heart for You), because you did!

“Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.” ~Proverbs 31:8-9 (NIV)
