On November 2-3, Colonial Baptist Church (Cary, NC) is sponsoring an Adoption and Orphan Weekend. You can still register for this event. Registration is $5/person. You can register at Colonial’s Adoption and Orphan Weekend page. Read more in the attached flyer.

My opening night sermon is entitled “God’s Story of Adoption.” It will show the place of adoption within God’s story of redemption and its implications for orphan ministry and the earthly practice of adoption. Please consider attending.
