UPDATE ON THE ADOPTION TAX CREDIT

Give thanks that the Adoption Tax Credit was extended through 2011 in the "Obama-Care" health bill. Jedd Medifind did a great job breaking this down a bit at his blog at Christian Alliance for Orphans. This link should take you straight to it: http://christianallianceblog.org People need to check with their accountant about how this specifically applies to them, but they have now made it a "refundable" instead of a "non-refundable" credit. That could be huge for a lot of people.

3 Things To Pray For Orphans--- 1. Pray that the Lord will wrap His arms of protection around them and guard them from those who seek evil. 2. Pray that God will provide each orphan with the nourishment and shelter he or she needs to survive....especially those who are living on the streets, in garbage dumps, etc. 3. Pray that the Lord will open the eyes of government leaders and officials to the needs of orphans so that many can be rescued, protected, cared for, adopted.
