		<description>Todd, 

I stumbled onto your site and it been great to read your thoughts on the church and its mission and to see that you adopted! My background was in the church but now I work fulltime for an non-profit called The ABBA Fund (www.abbafund.org). Our mission is to help Christian couples overcome the financial obstacles to adoption by providing interest-free loans. We also help local churches establish matching grant/interest-free loan funds for adoption so that the local community is the one to help couples tangibly. I would love to hear more about your adoption and know if there&#039;s any ways I can serve you and your church when it comes to caring for orphans and making more adoptions possible. 

Feel free to contact me at jason [at] abbafund [dot] org anytime. 

Grace and peace!</description>
