Orphan Care Summer Tours

Every year Nightlight brings children to Southern California from orphanages overseas. In past years we have brought children from Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine. This summer we brought 11 children aged 6-11 from Taiwan. Excited boys and girls from 6-11 years of age joined us for two weeks in July.

Summer 2010 Tour

Nightlight Christian Adoptions and Detsky Dom Partners will bring children from Russia and Taiwan to Southern California in Summer 2010. The children will range in age from 8-15 years old. They will be here from July 7 – 22, 2010.

During their stay, the children will perform native dances and sing native songs in performances to be held at churches and local attractions. There will be a beach party, trips to Disneyland and the Orange County Fair, and a beach party.

Host Family Requirements

If you would like to host a child in your home, you will need either a homestudy completed by Nightlight Christian Adoptions or have begun the process by:

  1. Submitting an application to Nightlight Christian Adoptions
  2. Being fingerprinted
  3. Meeting with a Nightlight social worker

All of our host families will also need to:

  1. Attend a Host Parent Preparation Class
  2. Attend the Host Parent Orientation Meeting
  3. Be able to drive the child to performances and other tour activities
  4. Commit to having at least one parent with the child during the entire time of the tour; parents will need to alternate time away from work if both work full time.

It will cost approximately $2,000 to bring each child over (airfare, health insurance, and a portion of the chaperones’ expenses). Your help in raising this money, by reaching out to your friends and family, is greatly appreciated.

To apply to become a host parent, please download the host parent application and send to Kathryn Deiters, Nightlight Christian Adoptions, 4430 E. Miraloma Avenue, Suite B, Anaheim Hills, CA 92807.
