You can make a difference in the life of a child! Captured in the book, The Lucky Few, Josh and Heather Avis share on the pain and heartache that several years of infertility had on their marriage. They then share how God began to prompt their hearts to adopt, and then adopt a child with Down syndrome. They also share on their other two adopted children and shine a positive light on Down syndrome reminding all of us that even if we feel fear we need to step out in faith to what God is calling us to.
