Help Us
There's Much You Can Do!
We are honored that you're considering helping us bring orphaned children into a loving family. Right now, there are two main ways you can help us: 1) pray, and 2) donate.
Prayer
We believe in the power of prayer, and believe nothing will have a greater impact on our adoption process. We'd love to have many people who will commit to praying for us in the coming months.
Financial Help
Here's the unvarnished truth: adoption is expensive. We have already paid thousands of dollars towards this adoption, and have many thousands to go. We know there are many people who would like to help us with these adoption costs, and we have set up an account with Lifesong for Orphans to do just that. Donations to Lifesong for Orphans are tax-deductible, and are used 100% towards our adoption expenses. Here's what Lifesong has to say:
Dear church, family, and friends of Loren and Kristen Alldrin,
Lifesong for Orphans (www.lifesongfororphans.org) is a non-profit Christian ministry dedicated to help meet the needs of orphan children around the world, and obey God's call to "visit the fatherless...in their affliction" (James 1:27).
Loren and Kristen have sensed God's call, and have joyfully stepped out in faith and obedience to adopt siblings from Ethiopia... Lifesong believes God has raised up the Alldrin family "for such a time as this..." We invite you to support them financially to make this adoption possible. Funds donated to Lifesong for Orphans will be given as an Adoption Grant to help cover adoption expenses* for these special girls. Your gift is tax deductible and you will receive a tax-deductible receipt.
*100% of all funds raised will go directly to cover adoption costs--nothing will be taken out for Lifesong for Orphans administrative costs.
Will you invest financially in the life of these precious little girls? It will be an investment with eternal return.
HOW TO DONATE
If you'd like to donate to our adoption expenses, the process is simple. Just make out a check payable to Lifesong for Orphans with "Alldrin #863 adoption" in the memo section. Mail to:
Lifesong for Orphans
PO Box 40
Gridley, IL 61744
You can also follow this link to donate through PayPal, but PayPal keeps a few percent of every donation as their reward for being such clever folks. IMPORTANT: if you use Paypal, please be sure to type "Alldrin #863 adoption" into the "Description" field.
We appreciate you reading this far, and thank you in advance for your prayers and financial support.
