The Lord's work at any stage of life.
Just because you can’t adopt a child, or don’t have the funds to donate doesn’t mean there isn’t a place for you in the Lord’s kingdom work. All individuals in the body of Christ can work in one way or another. It might not look exactly like you thought, but you will most certainly find a great reward for your service and support of caring for the fatherless.
8 Ways to Get Involved
Financial Support
Financial support makes this work possible. Every gift—large or small—helps a child find a loving, stable home. When many people give a little, it becomes something truly life-changing.
Host or Sponsor a Fundraiser
Fundraising events are the foundation and backbone of our mission. These events come in all shapes & sizes but each one has been a success not only financially but in fellowship and increasing awareness around adoption and the cost to adopt.
We need local Sponsors to help defray the cost of the events. Sponsors can be individuals or businesses. Sponsors get great perks such as advertising and special treatment at events.
Pray
We invite you to pray for the children who long for stability and belonging. Pray for the mamas who are walking through heavy and complicated situations. And pray for the families who are answering the call to open their hearts and homes.

Host an Adopting Family
Over the years, Tom and Susan have welcomed more than 50 Sacred Selections families into their home. Their kindness has provided a place of rest for parents walking through the intense and emotional process of adoption. They describe hosting as one of the great joys of their lives, and we encourage others who are able to consider this meaningful form of service.
Host an Adoption Workshop
Talking to families about adoption – what to expect, the challenges and the blessings, as well as the support Sacred Selections can offer – often can best be done in a local workshop. When the SS founders are in your town, this can be an occasion to invite brothers and sisters in Christ who are interested in learning more about Sacred Selections and the adoption process into your home to meet with them.

Encourage Mothers to Choose Life
The message of adoption is simple: “if you can choose life, we can help give that life a home.” Adoption shines a light in a dark place. We have seen hundreds of amazing examples. If we say no to abortion, we must consider and offer solutions. Help someone struggling with such an emotional decision. Overcome your fears – have that conversation and encourage them to call.
Legacy Planning
All of us hope to leave behind something that reflects our values and the life God has guided us through. Legacy giving offers a way to extend that impact by helping a child experience the love and security of a family. Your gift can shape a child’s future long after your own journey is complete.
Evangelize the Work
Pure religion which is acceptable to God is defined by caring for the fatherless – individually, and by extension collectively. Israel was condemned and judged for lacking in this practice. James simply reminds us we will be too, in James 1:27. We should remind ourselves and others of this sobering fact. “Let us provoke one another to love and good works.
