How much did you raise?
My goal was $5,000 and here's where we're at!
1. Online. Go HERE and then choose option #1. Just mention Olive Tree Adoption Fund in the comment section when given the opportunity at the end of the PayPal payment process. Olive Tree Adoptions is a ministry of Bethany Church and so the PayPal link is to donate through Bethany Church.
2. Send a check made out to Olive Tree Adoptions and send to Bethany Church, 6900 Auto Club Rd., 55438.
How will my donations be used?
Your donations will be put into the fund that is designated to help defray the adoption costs for families. God willing, someday our family will take advantage of this very fund!
What is Olive Tree Adoptions?
The ministry of Olive Tree Adoptions is to place fatherless children into loving families, and ultimately the family of God. Many families have heard the call of God to minister to orphans and would gladly open their homes and adopt children into their families. However it is often a lack of finances that is a major barrier keeping orphans from these families. Olive Tree Adoptions exists to overcome this barrier by offering a low cost adoption service that educates, eliminate costs, offers financial assistance, and "wrap around" support to adoptive families. We are calling believers to this ministry of restoration and making it affordable, thereby multiplying the numbers of orphans finding healing in families and the heart of our Father God.
