"… every Christian is called to service. Your call to salvation included your call to service. Regardless of your job or career, you are called to full-time Christian service. A 'non-serving Christian' is a contradiction in terms."
International China Concern
In 1993 a young Briton by the name of David Gotts (22) travelled to an orphanage in China and saw the conditions under which many of her orphaned, abandoned and handicapped children were living.
The shock of seeing the environment and conditions these unwanted children were subjected to made David Gotts ask himself the question, “Is this what God really wants for these children?”.
David became inspired to intervene, and seek to make a difference in the lives of these children. So International China Concern (ICC) was born.
Ray & Suzanne were privileged to serve with ICC, and voluntarily ran the Asia Office in Hong Kong for three years while Suzanne was teaching there.
It was through an ICC Short Term Team in 2002 that they first met Wang Xiang (Deborah), and their relationship with her began.
Ray & Suzanne sponsored Deborah initially, then began fostering her through ICC in November 2005.
