November Adoption Family: Team Alexander Video

I’m honored to present the November adoption video!  Their crazy, amazing, miraculous adoption story featured on Not About Me top bar all month. If you have EVER wondered if adoption was something you could wrap your heart around, please take the time to watch this remarkable family’s journey to baby Abe.  I had the privilege of spending the week with the Alexanders at family kamp this summer.  You see what you get with this group of heroes.  Their passion as a family is contagious.  To learn more about adoption, as well as following their journey back to Ethiopia (they have a new son) take a peek at Team Alexander blog. Congratulations on passing court… Introducing Seth Eyasu Alexander!

Adoption has radically changed our family- for the better.  The Lord first drew our hearts to the plight of the estimated 147 million orphans several years ago.  I knew quickly that we had several children waiting for us in Ethiopia.  I just needed Him to reveal to us where and who they were.  We traveled to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in August 2008 to pick up our son Abe and we leave next week to bring home our 3 year old son!  I love the glorious picture of our adoption in Christ displayed in the physically adding children to our family.  I’m grateful that the Lord opened our eyes to the call to care for the orphans in James 1:27 as our lives are richer in every way.  (Emily Alexander, adoptive mom.)
