Our agency is planning a ceremony to honor families who adopted children within our agency this past year. We are catering a nice meal and are giving each family the gift of an Amaryllis to represent life and beauty. The ceremony also will include a speech from an adoptive parent to encourage and inspire the other families, as well as a song played and written by the birth child of one of our adoptive families. There will also be a candlelighting ceremony and prayer at the end. This is an annual event that the staff looks forward to, as well as the adoptive families.
