We’d like to introduce another Wild Olive Fundraising Family!
The Wild Olive Adoption Fundraising Program was born out of our passion for the orphan. The goal of this program is to help raise support to enable families to adopt a child. What better cause is there than helping a child that was once an orphan be adopted into a loving, Jesus-following, forever family?
Meet the Bandimeres, who are in the process of adopting a little girl from India…
Hello from the Bandimere family (David, Sarah, Adam, Yana, Lily, Jadon and Grace). We are excited to be adding to our family once again! We are in the process of adopting a little girl from India. She is 10 years old and in need of surgery in the U.S. When she is finally home with us we will have three 11 year olds in our house!! We wish that we could post her photo, because she is absolutely precious and we love her with all of our hearts!
Our journey to R. started a few years ago, while we were adopting our daughter Grace, from China. Sarah had a dream about a curly-haired little girl who would absolutely change our lives. In 2010, our daughter, Lily, and Sarah went to India to volunteer at an orphanage there. Our hearts were broken for the people of India. Soon after returning home, we started the adoption process for our sweet daughter. India is a very difficult country in terms of adoption, but the need is great. We’ve encountered some bumps along the way, but with India’s new adoption procedures now in place, we’ve seen some progress in the past few weeks. We are believing that God will bring home our precious girl very soon!
