“Isolation of a child from his or her mother usually causes serious consequences in his or her intellectual development and formation of personality that are not subject to correction. Orphanages usually get those children who already suffer from psychological deprivation and lack of parental care.” – Dr. Lyudmila M. Shipitsyna (“Psychology of Orphans”)

“…The first years in the life of a child are critical in affecting the development of his or her personality. It has been convincingly demonstrated that the loss of the parental family and primarily the loss of communication with a mother, influences a child’s development quite negatively.” – Dr. Lyudmila M. Shipitsyna (“Psychology of Orphans”)

"...[T]he hardest part about adopting for me isn't living in a different country, eating different food, spending a lot of money, or rearranging some things in my home and life to make room for another child. The most heart-wrenching aspect of adopting...will be leaving behind other kids. I still remember the day we left for Ukraine, and the sight of other wonderful children watching us drive away. It was a sobering reminder that the world is not as it should be." - Tony Merida & Rick Morton ("Orphanology")

"Realize, then, how significant it is that the Biblical writers introduce God as a 'father to the fatherless, a defender of widows' (Psalms 68:4-5). This is one of the main things he does in the world. He identifies with the powerless, he takes up their cause." - Tim Keller ("Generous Grace")

"There are hundreds of thousands of 'human beings' ... 'real people' who live out their childhood years with no mom and dad. Not having a mom and dad is just a small part of being an 'orphan.' The real pain of being an orphan comes from living your life under a banner of being REJECTED, UNWANTED, and OPTIONAL. These scars are worn deep within every orphan child, and the hurt does not go away when they turn 18. The value and self-worth issues continue...for life. Our most effective response is to LOVE THEM." - Tony Merida & Rick Morton ("Orphanology")

"The truth is, we are groping for answers as to how to help institutionalized children transition well into adulthood. As a guy who has spent the better part of the last 20 years ministering to young people in the US, I realize that launching young people into the independence of adulthood is difficult even when the conditions are great. For institutionalized children, the conditions are poor and the stakes are high, but we must not fail. God's love for them compels us." - Tony Merida & Rick Morton ("Orphanology")

"The concept of business as mission is as old as the Bible itself. Missional entrepreneurialism involves Christians going to the nations to plant their lives among the peoples of the nations, creating for-profit businesses while also generating opportunities to live and share the gospel from within the culture. Recently, a movement has begun to gain momentum in the evangelical church called business as mission (BAM). These BAM entities could be founded with the intention of hiring orphan graduates, to give them a place to apprentice at a living wage while being protected from the predators who seek to prey on their vulnerable life state." - Tony Merida & Rick Morton ("Orphanology")

"Given that one of the primary problems in the Majority World is a lack of employment opportunities, it makes sense to start and operate businesses that can directly provide jobs for poor people." - From the Book "When Helping Hurts"

Despite a serious drought, our garden is somehow flourishing this year…which is good news because România 🇷🇴 leads the EU in inflation, and food prices are soaring. We have a lot of mouths to feed at the Beauty from Ashes Center!
