FRANCIS CHANPastor & Author, Crazy Love

“Through their work in and among the churches in the US, Lifesong for Orphans is fulfilling their mission of ‘bringing joy and purpose to orphans.’ They are living out the gospel in the work they are doing.”

HOWARD DAYTONCo-Founder, Crown Financial Ministries

“Adoption is a ministry to effect future generations...and Lifesong’s Adoption Grant, and Church Adoption Fund programs are fantastic resources for how God could provide for your adoption financial needs...”

“I want to encourage you to spend some time with our good friends at Lifesong. God is using this ministry to open the eyes of the church to God’s heart for orphans.”

DENNIS RAINEYPresident, Family Life

“Every chance I get, I point adopting families (and those who think they might be) to Lifesong. Our Christ Jesus is using this ministry to empower families to adopt children, and thus to point the whole church to the gospel that saves us and the mission that sends us.”

RUSSELL D. MOOREAuthor, Adopted for Life: The Priority of Adoption for Christian Families and Churches

DR. DAVID PLATTPastor & Author, Radical & Counter Culture

“I am deeply grateful for God’s grace in Lifesong...I wholeheartedly recommend Lifesong to churches who want to express the love of the Father to the fatherless here and around the world.”

JD GREEARPastor & Author, Gospel & Stop Asking Jesus into Your Heart

“Lifesong is a valuable partner in equipping our church to be involved in adopting ministry. Not only do they assist families seeking to adopt, they provide opportunities for the rest of our church body to come alongside those families in the process.”

JEDD MEDEFINDPresident, Christian Alliance for Orphans | Author, Upended

“I absolutely love how Lifesong for Orphans continually champions a Kingdom vision larger than itself. Lifesong isn’t just about Lifesong. From facilitating local church adoption funds across the U.S. to indigenous adoption efforts in Ukraine, Lifesong is about helping Christians vibrantly reflect God’s heart for the orphan in practical action.”
