On October 21, I will be speaking at a special luncheon at the Together for Adoption conference in Phoenix, AZ. If you are involved in orphan ministry in any way, this is a truly valuable experience. (Keep reading to find out how to enter a giveaway for free books at Noel Piper’s blog!)

This special lunch, hosted by Children’s Hope Chest, will be held on October 21-22 at the Together for Adoption conference in Phoenix. This lunch will be held on Friday, October 21st, from 11:45 AM to 1:00 PM. The first 200 people to regsiter for this luncheon will receive a free copy of  Fields of the Fatherless. Register soon to reserve your spot.

Luncheon details here.

I’ll be talking about the importance of the U.S. church mobilizing resources to care for orphans overseas.

HopeChest has over 100 active projects where U.S. churches are partnering with local indigenous leaders and churches to care for orphans. These projects are transforming lives by empowering local leaders with input, resources, love, and tools from U.S. churches.

This is a great way to get your church involved. Please consider the conference, and if you know someone going, pass along this great opportunity. The lunch is free, and the first 200 people get free books too.

I’ll host a book signing event at the lunch as well.

Later in the conference, I’ll speak on the “Plight of the Trafficked Orphan,” addressing the critical intersection of the commercial sex trade and the global orphan crisis.

BUT YOU DON’T HAVE TO WAIT TO GET A FREE BOOK
