ashestoafricaFrom Ashes to Africa” by Amy and Josh Bottomly is a memoir about this couple’s struggle with infertility and their adoption journey.  

“For us, that exquisite moment of grace took place in an orphanage in Africa where we met and fell in love with a baby boy named Tesfamariam.   Adoption was our awakening. It’s where we discovered a world within our world made up of 4.4 million orphans. As a result, we know we can’t go back to life as normal. Instead we feel summoned to a lifestyle of involvement with the “least of these.””  Go to http://www.fromashestoafrica.com/ to find out more.

 

 

tsions-lifeAmharic Kids:   This web-company was set up by Stacy Bellward when she realized there were very little resources for adoptive parents of Ethiopian children.  Amharic Kids sells a variety of books for children and adults, and have published two of their own books, “Ethiopian Voices: Tsion’s Life and “Our First Amharic Words”.  Amharic Kids sponsors two children in Ethiopia and donates to various charities benefitting Ethiopia.  Check out Amharic Kids first when looking for books!
