Fostering Love in Thailand

"Instead of receiving flowers on last year's Mother's Day, Susan Quaid* marked the day by giving away a child.

"Susan, who cares for at-risk children in Thailand as an IMB missionary, remembers last year when she traveled to another country to help facilitate the adoption of a child she had reared since it was four days old. Emotions that day came pouring out when Susan attended an international church service before returning to her home in Thailand.

" 'The message was so good for me,” she said. “I was bawling all through it and later a woman came up to me and asked, ‘Can I pray for you?’ She didn’t know I was in that country just to give this baby away.' "
