Together For Adoption - The Exhibitors

The conference is giving the opportunity to many different exhibitors to interact with all the attendees of the conference. I thought it would be a good idea to highlight some of them. Please take a moment to explore these various ministries below. They are all doing a very significant work and could use your help!

Bethany and Ryan Bomberger founded The Radiance Foundation (www.theradiancefoundation.org) to empower and inspire people to live a life of meaning by understanding their God-given Purpose. Through speaking engagements and multi-media presentations (broadcast/print/web/music) Ryan addresses issues spanning from his own incredible adoption story to pop culture and pluralism to exploring and debunking the propaganda of the abortion industry. Bethany's upcoming original book series, Sweet Radiance, focuses on issues for young children as its main character discovers her own self-worth and beauty through her whimsical adventures set to poetic rhyme. The Radiance Foundation illuminates Truth, which is what sets us all free. Be sure to visit the foundation's Youtube channel at www.youtube.com/radiancefoundation.

Mission Statement:
The mission of Orphan Outreach is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ by ministering to orphans around the world by meeting spiritual, physical, emotional and educational needs.

Overview:
Orphan Outreach serves orphans and vulnerable children by developing and supporting programs that prepare them for a fulfilling independent Christian life in their community. Our goal is to work with the local Christian Churches to involve them in caring for these children through programs like; Christian schools, group homes, foster care, community-based services, and support of orphanages.

Orphan Outreach connects churches and individuals with these ministry opportunities to orphans around the world.

Orphan Outreach’s Mission Backpack collection drives provide orphans and children in desperate need with a new backpack and the message that they do not walk alone.

Current programs are in Guatemala, Honduras, India, and Russia with developing programs in several other countries.

We offer churches and individuals opportunities to partner with orphanages and Christian schools on short and long term projects and mission trips.






WORLD ORPHANS is committed to rescuing millions of ORPHANED AND ABANDONED CHILDREN, the strengthening of thousands of INDIGENOUS CHURCHES, and the impacting of hundreds of COMMUNITIES with the Gospel of Jesus Christ…through the COST-EFFECTIVE empowerment of CHURCH-BASED orphan prevention, rescue, care and transition programs in the LEAST REACHED AREAS of the world.
