Be ready to do whatever is good.
(Titus 3:1)
November is National Adoption Awareness Month. You can help raise awareness by being informed about the adoption option, being ready to share, and being equipped to listen to a woman in crisis.
If you know a pregnant woman, encourage her to be matched with a Birthmothers Friend or get counseling to make the best decision for her and her baby. You can also offer these key questions she can use to get started in the decision-making process.
1. Could I handle a child and a job and/or school while parenting?
2. An example of something I would have to give up by having a child with me is:
3. Am I able to give the child the love he needs and deserves?
4. Am I patient enough to deal with the noise, confusion, and the 24-hour-a-day responsibility of having a child?
5. How would I take care of my child’s health and safety?
Loving and gracious Father,
Help me be ready to present the adoption option.
Amen.
