The Open Door, a Christian adoption agency in GA

Has anyone ever used this agency? I was wondering what you thought of it? I was looking into it based on a news cast on 60 Minutes. However, they seem like a very religious agency and I’m not sure if we will qualify. The first reference they want is a pastor and although we are religious we do not go to church right now. What should I do? Call and ask if that will be a problem before sending $200 with the registration?

That's exactly what I would do! Don't wait until your check is cashed ... If they want a pastor as your first reference, tho, I think that's a pretty good sign an agency will definitely consider your church attendance or religious "standing" (and who knows what THAT standard might be?) in their application process!

Call and talk to them before you send a dime, IMHO!

Peace,
