Christians, Let’s Not Stand in the Way of Kinship Care

By: Heather Dyer

In Ukraine, a little blonde-haired girl named Lisa needed somewhere safe to live after being severely neglected by her alcoholic mother. She was found with nothing to eat but an onion. Thankfully, Lisa’s grandfather was able to step in, and he became her legal guardian. Once scared and isolated, Lisa is now thriving in her grandfather’s care and will grow up with her connection to her biological family intact. 

As Christians, we know families are God’s intended setting for children to grow. Yet, without realizing it, sometimes we undermine this plan—U.S. Christians are substantial supporters of orphanages around the world.

While this is done with the right intentions, and vulnerable children do need help, giving to an orphanage is not the best way to help them.
