Early this month, HaTikva Families had the honor of partnering with Branch of Comfort to put on the first Adoption and Foster Conference for the Messianic, Ethiopian Community. Ethiopian Congregations from across Israel gathered in Tel Aviv at House of Generation Congregation to learn about the orphan crisis in Israel and their community. After a moving time of worship, our Founder, Evan Levine, shared his personal connection to adoption and the vision behind HaTikva Families. Then our Manager, Rebecca Rikhi, explained how we carry out our goal of placing children into families through adoption and foster care and how that relates to the Ethiopian Community.
