HOUSTON, Texas–As unaccompanied minors continue to illegally cross the Texas-Mexico border, President Obama’s Health and Human Services (HHS) has been quietly releasing them onto U.S. soil. A total of 30,340 unaccompanied minors have already been released from federal custody and placed into foster homes, according to HHS’ Office of Refugee and Resettlement (ORR). While many migrants have been released in border states like Texas and California, others have been set free in Alaska.
What are kids from Central America going to do in Alaska come September? January?
We have a friend who has adopted both a child from South America and Africa. They all live in Alaska. Alaska is usually warmer than we are–at least where they will be. Not that I am saying what is happening is right.
My own SIL had to wait to get here and pay and work for her citizenship. That is only one of the issues involved in all this.

Someone close to me argues that this is a perfect opportunity to present the Gospel. If we won’t go the lost, God’ll bring the lost to us.
So, should I adopt one? Or two? Or four? Or not? 🙂
