The Adoption & Foster Care Journey
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. Luke 2:16-19

This week we talk with adoptive mom, Jennifer Elwood. Jennifer is the author of Counting Up to Christmas—Twenty-Four Gifts from the Gospel of Luke.
