For years, families have wondered what exactly motivates the members of Homecoming Adoptions to work in international adoptions. We have always answered those questions in a private conversation, but we have never publicly issued a Statement of Faith before 2004. While we accept families of all faiths, we feel that prospective adoptive families have a reasonable concern about what motivates us to do our work.

We believe that the plight of unwanted children is one of the most critical issues facing our world today. In some countries, entire generations are suffering and dying due to neglect , financial ruin and political upheaval that affects various countries. The true victims in our society are the children because the do not have an advocate for their needs. Faced with this issue, we have endeavored to respond with compassion, excellence and commitment.

In a word, we are Christians. We believe that Jesus Christ was God's only Son who died on a cross to save us from our sinful ways as lost children. Being fully God, and at the same time, fully man, Jesus Christ died for our sins so that we could be "adopted" into a loving relationship with God the Father.

As God has adopted us as His own children, we believe the most important work we can do in this life is to help adoptive families save the world; one child, one adoption at a time.

We do not share our faith for boasting or for any perceived endorsement. Instead, we hope that our passion would become your passion, whether Christian, Muslim, Jew or agnostic. For every child that is brought into a loving home is another opportunity to save our society. We cannot idly sit by while our families and our futures silently perish. Fame, prosperity and fortune will all fade away in time. But the lasting work of giving a little soul a second chance through international adoption will endure for generations to come.

Believing that Faith without Works is dead, we also put our money where our mouth is. Some of Homecoming’s charitable efforts include complete fee waivers for people who wish to adopt children with “special needs,” awards of adoption grants to offset adoption costs, the funding an orphanage in its entirety in India, a country where Homecoming does not have an adoption program, and donations of food, medicine, clothes, and toys for children in other countries. Homecoming is also happy to help arrange for Mission Trips for individuals and/or groups that wish to spend time on location to help orphans and orphanages directly. This is not a small undertaking you are considering and you should know the who, what, when, where, and why of it. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions you may have.
