Two Siblings Who Will Melt Your Heart

These two siblings will melt you heart–videos available! G is an active child with good friendships! . in school, he is good at analyzing, summarizing and determining cause-effect relationships. His only special need is a minor speech impairment. He needs help from adults to deal with certain situations. He likes fast, competitive games and tries hard to win. Isn’t that a charming smile?
His older sister V is well-respected and accepted among those she knows. She has no known special needs. She has beautiful handwriting and in school, she does homework independently. She can talk about her past experiences and also likes fast, dynamic games. She has a close relationship with her brother, protecting him and giving him advice. Her eyes seem so sad – you imagine her eyes lit up with the love a family?

Imagine what joy these two children could add to a family! There are more pictures, videos, and information available on our Waiting Child Advocacy page. Please contact us for the password.

"Merry and Radiant" S will be transferred to an Adult Mental Institution

This precious girl, who is described as “merry and radiant,” will be transferred to an adult mental institution. Many of you may be following the story of Allie-Jo, a 13 year old in China who is aging out in 3 weeks. Did you know that S is also aging out in 3 weeks? Please help S the same way you are helping Allie-Jo. Pray and share her story! As an adopted woman with six adopted, special-needs sisters (including from Eastern Europe) I know what a bleak future awaits S if she is not adopted. A family would only have to complete their I800A before her birthday to keep her from aging out! If you are considering S please know that Ting Ministries will do whatever we can to help! Please don’t let finances or medical terms deter you.
This is not a game. Advocating is not something we do just for fun. A child’s life is at stake. PLEASE– we have videos of S talking, pictures, and more information about S on our Waiting Child Advocacy page at www.tingministries.blogspot.com. Please contact us for the password so you can learn more about S today. There is no time to waste.
A bit about S: She is a girly-girl who loves to do her nails, and wear bows and tiaras in her hair. She is listed as having moderate mental delay, hydrocephalus and Spina bifida, but she can get around independently in her wheelchair. S is quite social, a leader among her peers, and loves going to school (for special-needs children).
“If to be feelingly alive to the sufferings of my fellow-creatures is to be a fanatic, I am one of the most incurable fanatics ever permitted to be at large.” ~William Wilberforce, abolitionist and author of “Real Christianity”
Orphans don’t need curious bystanders. Orphans need incurable fanatics.

A Handsome Sweetheart

Just look at this handsome sweetheart! D is from an Eastern European country. He is a calm and happy child who likes to listen to music and watch cartoons, D is diagnosed with epilepsy, severe mental delay, and spastic quadriplegia (Cerebral Palsy). Though he is dependent on adults for his care, he turns when he hears his name called and tries to imitate others. He is observant and follows what happens around him.
D sounds lot like our precious Avi, whose story started a whole ministry in the Philippines.


 Can someone help continue his story? He deserves a family–please help us advocate for him. To learn more about D and see more pictures, please go to our Waiting Child Advocacy page. (Please contact us for the password).

A Special Plea Tonight: S is Aging Out!

Hi everyone, this is Sasha. Some of you may know my heart for the teenage, “aging out” children of Eastern Europe. As a orphan with special needs in Russia, I was placed in a mental institution. To say the least, my future was bleak. Today, as a junior honors student at Bucknell University I am proof of how a family can transform the life of an orphan. I have a special plea for you tonight. S is aging out and is in urgent need of a family! She is from an Eastern European country. S is described as “merry and radiant.” She is a girly-girl who loves to do her nails, and wear bows and tiaras in her hair. She is listed as having moderate mental delay, hydrocephalus and Spina bifida, but she can get around independently in her wheelchair. S is quite social, a leader among her peers, and loves going to school (for special-needs children). Imagine how a family could change S’s life! Today, I advocate for orphans because I was once one myself. I have seen how my sister Annie, who was rescued hours before she would have aged out, has thrived and grown in just one year. From the four walls of an orphanage to an American high school student who plays guitar, she now has a world of opportunities in front of her. Please, won’t someone do the same for S? Please share and pray for S– she has very little time before it is too late. To learn more about S, please go to the Waiting Child Advocacy page. (Contact Ting Ministries for the password.

It’s V’s Day!

Update 6/10/17: A family was found for sweet little V! Thank you to all who helped advocate for her!

It’s V’s day! Look at those big eyes and curly hair– isn’t V precious? She is from an Eastern European country and is not yet 2 years old. V needs a family fast–she is in urgent need of a liver transplant. Imagine, something so simply fixed at a hospital here, is denied to V simply because she has no family of her own. As the older sister of several sisters who have come from dire situations, I know V could thrive in a family. We have no time to lose!

To learn more about V, please visit our Waiting Child Advocacy page.
