Welcome to wearegraftedin.com! This first post is the culmination of years of discussing the need for a site like this and months of more intentional planning to actually make it happen. We pray that the site will be an encouragement to families considering adoption, in the process of adopting, parenting their adopted child, fostering children, or considering the significant ministry of orphan care.
We encourage you to join the forum and use it to interact together and discuss any thing from paperwork and how to choose an agency to preparing for travel, preparing siblings for a new child, or how to engage your church in your process. May it be a source of education, encouragement, and fellowship.
We plan on posting relevant articles, challenging and encouraging essays and personal blog posts, and monthly featured families. Become a follower and be watching for some really good posts we have lined up in the coming weeks!
We invite you to become a contributor as well. We welcome your submissions for potential posts as well as your suggestions of helpful resources and retailers. We have tried to add what we think families would find helpful here but are always open for suggestions to better meet the needs of the families who will visit the site.
May He be glorified as we seek to please Him in our families and in our community together!

This is a wonderful idea!
Hello Kelly and Mark,
My name is Carrie Sargent and I am married to Prince Charming, Tim. We have five children with the youngest being adopted from China. I am excited to bookmark your blog and keep up with all that goes on here.
I loved reading your article about grafting. When I think of who I was before the Lord grafted me in and who I am now………HIS DAUGHTER, tears fill my eyes. When I look at our adopted child and think of her life before the Lord sent us after her, tears also fill my eyes. What a mighty God we serve!
Looking forward to my daily dose of your site.
God bless,
Carrie
