RhonLea ,

Great Kickoff!

Looking forward to learning more about 4KIDS through Kevin Enders’ podcast interviews. I’ve been a fan of 4KIDS since stepping through its doors two years ago. As a grandma to foster and adoptive kiddos, God called me into a writing project to serve biological children within foster families. Your staff encouraged me as they prayed over me and the children’s book series. Such truth you speak when you say we can all say YES to something in the world of foster care! May God continue to bless you in your mission.
