Recognizing that all believers are called to care for the orphan but not all believers are called to adopt, two different tracks of electives will be offered this year:   the Adoption Track and the Orphan Care Track.  There will be the opportunity to attend 2 electives during the conference.  Electives chosen can be from the same track or 1 elective from each track.  Please prayerfully consider the electives below.
