England. The visiting boys choir from Liberia, which had toured the United States for a year, raising money for their orphanage, was about to sing. Debbie was vaguelyaware of fighting and instability in their country, and wondered what teenagers from such a troubled land would be like. 1010jiajiaoAfter a few songs, an announcer described the hardships these boys faced at home. While the boys were on tour, their orphanage had twice come under attack. In June, rebels ransackedthe building. One caregiver died in the fight; three others were wounded. More than 400 children had to run for their lives. Teenagers, carrying toddlers on their backs, escaped in the rain to Monrovia, about 25 miles away. They were all still there, living in a warehouse. 1010jiajiaoThe announcer was blunt. The choirboys’ visas were about to come to an end, and they would have return to Liberia unless they were adopted. 1010jiajiaoMaybe it was the church, the music or the look on the boys’ faces that gave rise to the words Debbie heard: This is what I want you to do. 1010jiajiaoYet she resisted. No. I just raised my two. I’ve done my time. Adopting a teenager from a foreign country was not even close to being on her to-do list. 1010jiajiaoAfter the service, however, she found herself at a reception to meet the boys. It was heartbreaking to see the boys. She told the choir leader that if there were boys who didn’t find families, she might be interested. 1010jiajiaoScarcely believing what she had done, she called David, her husband, as she drove home ―almost hoping he would talk her out of this crazy idea. There was silence on the other end. Finally, David replied, “Can we talk about this when you get home? 1010jiajiaoWhat David hadn’t told her was that for weeks, he had been praying for a way to make his life really count. He was tired of living a safe life. When Debbie had called about adopting the boys, David knew instantly this was it. He loved being a dad. 1010jiajiao 【
