Tony Dungy, Super Bowl Halftime, and Orphan Care




As Super Bowl Sunday comes this weekend, we are excited to give you a unique opportunity to share adoption with your friends and family. Super Bowl-winning coach Tony Dungy and his wife, Lauren, have adopted several children and would love to see more families consider adoption. 
A Free Half-Time Video Kit featuring Tony and Lauren Dungy is available to Super Bowl party organizers. This 3-minute video message includes a personal appeal to Americans on the subjects of adoption and the orphan crisis. 
The big win on Super Sunday would be to raise awareness about the millions of children who need a family. I would love to see thousands of local community groups and circles of friends gathering together to stop and consider how they can help.

With the Super Bowl airing on NBC and taking place in Indianapolis, Tony will be prominently featured on TV in front of hundreds of millions of viewers, making it an easy transition to play his video message at any Super Bowl party. 

We are asking you as a pastor or host of a Super Bowl party to consider spending half-time watching this video and going through this Conversation Guide with your church, small group, family or friends.

Lifesong's complimentary Video Halftime Kit, available on www.adoptionjourney.org/dungyhalftime, includes:
  • 3-minute video featuring Tony and Lauren Dungy
  • Printable guide for event organizers for introducing the video and starting conversations about the Dungy's message
  • Instructions for downloading the video with multiple ways to play it on your TV
AdoptionJourney.org offers additional adoption resources, such Church Adoption Funds, FAQ's answered by couples who've already adopted, webcasts, child sponsorship, and features about families and leaders involved with adoption initiatives.
