Adopt a Grandparent Search Ideas

by Brenda Loeschmann

Mike and Brenda Loeshmann didn't intend to find adopted grandparents for their children, it just happened. Now they've put together a few ideas to get your creative juices flowing in thinking of how you can do the same.

  • Host a Grandparent Day at church. Invite all members of the church to a social time after church and hook up families through an event.

  • Put a note in your church bulletin. Strange things happen when God is in it.

  • Have a "Guess Who is Coming to Dinner" event. Ask people of the church to sign up to either host or go to someone's home for a meal. A co-ordinator would then match up families for a meal.

  • Host a Grandparent Prayer Time. Many children do not know or have someone to pray for them. Having a planned time of prayer will bring believers closer together and lead those who need to seek God's guidance on approaching a family about adoption.

  • Keep a positive attitude about the people God sends along in your life. You will always be surprised with the great gifts God has in store for you.
