Check out my article on “Small Churches Doing Orphan Care” over at EdStetzer.com.
Here’s an excerpt:
I have actually found that smaller churches are often more effective in caring for orphans before a watching world than larger churches are. In larger churches orphan care can simply become one ministry among many, many others. But in smaller churches orphan care is much more easily seen as an essential part of who they are and what they do. It’s not as easily obscured by a forest of other ministries. As a result, smaller churches have the opportunity to lead the way by more visibly demonstrating that orphan care is not a missional add-on.

We saw this first hand recently when we traveled to a small church in northern MN and saw their work in orphan care as it directly related to our two sons!
