The Goal of the Sonscope Adoption Fund
The Sonscope Adoption Fund was established with the goal that no family would be prevented from moving forward on an adoption because of expenses. So instead of requiring a home study, a priority for Sonscope is to help fund a family’s home study as a catalyst to move their adoption hopes forward. Sonscope’s hope is that the expense of adoption would not prevent any family from adopting.
Sonscope’s founders discovered that many families felt led to adopt but were daunted by the fees required “up front,” even before they chose an agency, a country, or received approval.
The founder’s want to help families make the important first decision to step onto the path of faith to proceed with an adoption journey.
The Heart of the Sonscope Adoption Fund
In previous decades adoption was often the end of a sentence that began with infertility. God, however, is changing the modern church’s attitude regarding the orphan and reminding us to defend the cause of the fatherless because it is God’s heart’s desire, His plan A. Consider this: Were it not for God’s design before the beginning of time to adopt us into His Kingdom we would all be lost children without a Heavenly Abba, Father.
The heart of the Sonscope Adoption Fund was founded on Ephesians 1:5, shared this way in The Message translation: “Long long ago God decided to adopt us into his family through Jesus Christ. (What pleasure He took in planning this!)” It is with this reality that Sonscope desires to join God’s plan, begun before the foundation of the earth, to unite families and bring orphans home to loving, nurturing family environments.
