Adopt Without Debt October 13, 2012

In 2000, Julie Gumm and her husband, Mark, declared war on their debt - credit cards, student loans, cars and the house. Seven years later, as they wrote the check for their last mortgage payment, God called them to adopt two children from Ethiopia. A few months later, with their income unexpectedly cut by two-thirds, they wondered if they could finish the adoption without crossing back over into the red.When they brought Wendemagegn and Beza home 12 months later, Julie and her husband proved debt-free adoption is possible!

Passionate about helping others achieve their adoption dream, Julie shares how to find extra money in your household budget, apply for grants, and fundraise in order to build your family without saddling it with debt. Parents working with any child placing agency are welcome to attend. Only $20 per household! We hope you will join us for this interactive workshop on Saturday, Oct 13 from 9:00 - 11:30 am at Cottonwood Creek Baptist Church in Allen. Space is limited, so register now!

This event made possible by a collaboration of adoption/foster care/orphan ministries in North Texas including Abba's Children from Preston Trail Community Church, Cottonwood Creek Baptist Church and the Embrace Ministry.
