During Lent, I have decided to pray for one child with Down syndrome a day that they find a forever family to adopt them Reece's Rainbow. These children need our help!
The mission of Reece’s Rainbow is to rescue orphans with Down syndrome through the gift of adoption, to raise awareness for all of the children who are waiting in 25 countries around the world, and to raise funds as adoption grants that help adoptive families afford the high cost of adopting these beautiful children.
Every family deserves the blessing of a child with Down syndrome!!
Day 4: Felix

We thank You that children are a gift from You and that their angels are always in Your presence in heaven. (Matthew 18:10)
Today we pray for Felix who is in need of a new family better able to care for, nurture and love them. We also thank you, Father, that you have given loving hearts to a forever family that they feel called by their love for this precious child to begin the adoption process. You know the difficulties that Felix has gone through and the prayer and effort they have put into their decision to adopt.
We pray that the adoption process will run smoothly and that the doors will open so this child may become a permanent part of a new family. We pray for wisdom and discernment for all doctors, lawyers, social workers, judges and court staff that they will work in the best interest of this child. We also pray for Your provision of the resources of money and expert advice needed for the prospective parents.
We pray that your will be done in this precious child’s life and that this child will be surrounded by love and nurtured in the knowledge of You so they may grow into the strong, secure, beautiful person you desire.
We are asking for Saint William of Rochester intercession and help Felix to find his permanent family.
Guide us as we pray and make us instruments of healing and help in this situation. And guard our own hearts with the knowledge that You are here and that You care. In the name of Jesus who blessed little children by taking them into his arms, Amen.
Day 4: Felix
What a handsome prince! Felix was born in the October 20, 2003. He already has $11,608.31 to go towards his adoption!! If you feel moved to help out Felix financially with the cost of his adoption, you can donate directly towards Sean's adoption funding by going to his page here.
What a cutie! Betcha he is a handful! Felix is blessed to be at more of an internat than the institution. He doesn’t have many words of his own, but his receptive understanding is very good. He is potty trained and does ask to go to the bathroom. He is described by his caregivers as very friendly and quite the comedian!
Felix urgently needs a family. He was raised as the only child with DS in the baby house. He was much loved and the only child with special needs there, so he didn’t know he was different….. he was raised like the rest of the kids…and was transferred late to the “Internat for Invalids”. Felix was ADORED up until he was about 8 and has taken the transfer very hard. Felix is SUCH a love and he deserves to have a family of his own. Please help us rally for Felix!
Please pray to Saint William of Rochester, who's sole purpose is to intercede with each and every one of these beautiful children that need their forever families!!
