As you know, I’ve been so blessed to be a part of telling this story with our team. And it’s finally here! Here’s a quick recap of life when we filmed last month, and then the mini-documentary is at the bottom. Hope you enjoy!


 

Two years ago, we watched as World Racer Jenn Watson met a little Chinese boy with Down Syndrome named Zi. Jenn took a leap of faith when she asked her family to adopt him, and God opened every door to make it possible.

In Psalm 68:6, God promises that he sets the lonely in families. From a month in China to a three-minute Facebook conversation to a single $30,000 day, this is a story written by God’s hand to honor that promise.

And now we invite you to join us today to celebrate the miracle of adoption.

After months of brainstorming, strategizing, traveling, filming, editing, and polishing, Zi’s film is ready. But that’s not the real story.

The story is about an incredible family who said yes to bringing a little boy into their family for good. But even that’s not the real story.

The story is that God chose us. Adopted us. And called us sons and daughters.

That’s the main story we’re about. So whether you know that story or not, stay tuned, this video may just give you a little glimpse.

We couldn’t be more proud of this film and excited to show it to you.

So grab some tissues, watch this short film, and share it on your favorite social media sites:

  1. WOW, what a gracious, loving God we have!!! This story is magnificent, not just about Zi and his family but about God and our adoption into His loving arms.
    You have been privy to a very special loving endeavor. May it live long in your heart as I’m sure it will in all who see and hear it.
    Thank you !!!

  2. Stephanie, Zi is a wonderful piece! Told with such joy and emotion. I felt like I was there. sharing this phenomenal experience. You really should consider Christian film making. You go beyond pulling the watcher in, as they ‘feel’ the story. Thank you for sharing you gift/ministry. God is gonna use you girl!!!

  3. What a wonderful story and job well done capturing it Steph!
    So cool to see how God provided in every step. Now it’s time to get my tissue!!

  4. To my favorite missionary!!!
    Remembering when Susi, Kimmi, Jani, Tylor, Lana and Bobby came home! It was all possibly because God adopted me through His Son and put His Love into my heart…”to do to the least of these as unto You”.
    Thank you!!!
