Orphanage Fire

Early one morning Calista is reading the newspaper and sees a story about an orphanage fire in a nearby town.

All of the children were moved to safety but they have nowhere to place all the children. There is still one child (name and age not given) still living at the hospital until other arrangements can be made. Contributions were being requested to help with the housing for the child as well as the rebuilding of the orphanage.

Calista's heart is touched by the story of this child. She knows that there is something she can do. She goes straight to the phone and makes a contribution. She also asks about the procedure to either foster or adopt the child.

When Gregory got home from work, she told him the story and what she had discovered about adoption. After talking it over with each other, they called a family meeting.
