In fact, I was starting to fill out paperwork for a Korean adoption when we found out that we were pregnant with Benjamin. I thought I wouldn't be able to have a baby so we were going down that road. As it worked out, we didn't adopt - but I still have it in the back of my mind as something I'd still like to do. Adoption costs a lot more than $35 a month, though! I guess my Compassion child is 'adoption lite'. :-) Well…that is always a possibility in my mind.

Charitable giving from rich to poor countries comes out to something like .04% of GNP. The church tradition of one tenth sounds so much more appropriate. But unless governments around the world can start to think of better things to do with their billions of dollars beside create pointless wars, it's hard to see anything happening beyond the continued widening of the worldwide gap between rich and poor.
