Vivienne Ng's FB Post on 19 Feb 2016: Yesterday, we posted a letter TO foster grandparents. Here is a letter FROM a Singaporean foster grandparent (my father), written back in Sept 2014. My father had written this email to his fellow Board Directors at the International Christian Mission (ICM) where he serves, in response to my heartfelt plea (made in a pool of tears) which I had posted on the FB page of a major church denomination. "Hi Brethren While lying in a hospital bed at three this morning, I was reading our elder daughter Vivienne's open letter to the Christian community in Singapore, about fostering of children by Christian families. As I read it, my heart also ached. And I felt led to forward her letter to you all in the hope and prayer that you might want to encourage your children as well as your church members to consider fostering some children.

  10 Dec 2014 -  Teh Hsin and Joyce's sharing. They are fostering an adorable little girl who has on-going medical needs after sustaining injuries. Teh Hsin's principle of the Good Samaritan - if there is a wounded person lying in front of u, do we still need to ask God if it is His calling that we be the ones to help this person ? Appreciate Joyce's honest sharing about a) thanking the Lord for each single day with their foster daughter, b) rejoicing at the miracle of each milestone achieved and finally c) learning to let go and trust God when the child is reintegrated eventually.

  23 August 2014 -  Our hearts were stirred and greatly inspired by Robin and Linda's testimony of God's love and the miracles that took place when they allowed His love to flow through their lives to touch their foster children. JOY is what their foster children bring to them and JOY is word used to describe their fostering journey.
