For The Least

Foster Care & Adoption Panel At The Father's House

I first met Mike and Margo Lowry about two years ago through church. A friend had told my wife and I that there was this couple that we had to meet, who had just moved here from out of state, and that she wanted us to help welcome to our church and to the area. We knew almost immediately after speaking with them for the first time that there was truly something special about this husband and wife - and that “something” is their love of God, their intentional realness about life, and their HUGE hearts! Recorded Saturday, April 20th 2019 at their home in Lebanon, Ohio. Meet The Lowry’s….

Love Them Everyday. Love Them Well

I first connected with Jeff Jones several years ago through a men’s  adoption support group on Facebook. A group discussion lead to a friend  request, which lead to direct conversations through which we learned we  shared similar passions about foster care and adoption. Although we  stayed in contact, I did not actually meet Jeff and his wife Kristina in  person until March of this year.  This episode was recorded where Jeff  and Kristina currently serve and live - The Father’s House located in  Hamilton Ohio. The Father’s House is a former orphanage which began in  1869 as a home for orphans of the Civil War. The estate is a 2.8 acre  lot with a 25-room mansion and several outbuildings. When fully  restored, it will be a thriving community of families committed to  fostering and adopting, and an active center for advocacy and support  for others doing the same. We decided to sit in one of the front formal  rooms of the mansion - a beautiful open space with massive arching  windows and doorways. You can hear the acoustics as we speak. You can  also hear the love and passion that this wonderful husband and wife have  for The Least.  Meet Jeff and Kristina Jones. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/for-the-least/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/for-the-least/support
