chasing rainbows: Sunday's Child: Shaina

"A father of the fatherless, a defender of widows,
Is God in His holy habitation.
God sets the solitary in families;
He brings out those who are bound into prosperity;
But the rebellious dwell in a dry land." Psalm 68:5-6 NKJV
"If anyone among youthinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is useless. Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world." James 1: 26-27 NKJV

"Open your mouth for the speechless,
In the cause of all who are appointed to die.
Open your mouth, judge righteously,
And plead the cause of the poor and needy." Proverbs 31:8-9

Sunday's Child: Shaina

Shaina needs a family in-process who can be in-country to finalize the adoption before her birthday in June. Please contact Reece's Rainbow for more information.

Girl, born June 1999
C-S
Down syndrome
URGENT: Shaina is aging out — she needs to be adopted by JUNE 2013!

Shaina has Down syndrome, and her physical and intelligent development is behind the children of the same age. Though she can’t use words for expressive, she can use body language; when happy she will smile to you. She is fairly kind and sincere; if leaving her closest people she will cry. http://reecesrainbow.org/53519/shaina

Aging-Out Children

These young men and women have only a short time left before they age-out of the system and can no longer be adopted. For many of them they need a family already in process to be able to make the deadline. If you or family you know is in process for an international adoption please consider if you might be able to make one of these children your own.

There is a desperate need for more families to come forward who are ready to adopt older children. In a family they could learn and grow and thrive. Left in the system they face either lifetime institutionalization in mental facilities with menial care or being thrown out on the streets with no education, no money, no family or friends, and no where to go. With no life skills they are easy prey for human trafficking and often resort to prostitution and theft as a way of life. Many will choose suicide. But today it is not too late for them. If you can not offer them a place in your family, could you help another family do the same by partnering with them financially?

For more information on any of these children, please click on their picture or go to www.reecesrainbow.org.

(If you are interested in adopting an older child without special-needs, please let me know. I can get you in contact with other advocates that have more information.)
