The House of Hope: God's Love for the Abandoned Orphans of China by Elisabeth Gifford

5.0

f you’ve read my blog for any length of time you’ll know that I have a heart for adoption as well as a heart for foreign missions so when I had the chance to review The House of Hope which takes the reader to a Chinese orphanage called Hope Foster Home I couldn’t get on board fast enough. This book will tug at your heart and there will be times your eyes will flow with tears and your heart will literally ache for these children – the least of these. I felt myself wanting to reach through the pages of the book and give a hug to the Hill’s and their staff but most of all take all these children home with me!

I’ve been told by well meaning people if we should ever adopt that we should never consider a child with a health issue. This to me, is so heart wrenching, as these children deserve just as much love as a child who is born healthy. That is what the Hill’s wanted to do, give babies and children, who wouldn’t have someone to hold them as they go on to meet Jesus a feeling of being loved and wanted. So if you have a heart for those the Lord calls “the least of these” and you want to learn of what is going on at the Hope Foster Home then please purchase this book – 100% of the proceeds from this book goes toward the Hope Foster Home and the work going on there! You can purchase the book at Amazon.
