broke my heart i know it broke me up so i'm definitely gonna need photos for documentation purposes okay we need to understand that even with the photos this still might not work i don't think she's gonna go for pictures honestly and why wouldn't work for some reason the mom always gets emma back i know i know she blames it all on the boyfriend i read the entire case file she gets bail she files a petition to restore custody how is that even possible it honestly all comes down to the judge that's assigned to the case he has all the power i know hey i know i know this is discouraging but trust

you don't it's it's part of her job look there too many hypocrites in there for me hypocrites yeah you know it's i just swore that i would never walk back in there uh tara wants to adopt a kid uh a superhero are you ready for that i don't know yeah i've done those stories on adoption you know they touch your heart but there's always a stigma i mean you know all the woes and stuff i just never thought i'd have any other kids other than jess and it's miscarriages don't count sure they do kevin what edwin why aren't you answering my calls i've been trying to get a hold of you hi you're the uh guy from the news yes i am hi hi i'm linda goddard oh pleasure nice to meet you uh linda hi um look when i ignore your calls you should take the hint look with all due respect tomorrow morning rhonda sowers is going to file a petition to restore custody of her ten-year-old daughter emma okay emma's being abused what's that linda this is not my case i know i know it's judge bennett's okay so then take it to judge bennett i reviewed his files okay and he always selects parental placement okay that's a good thing no it's not not in cases when these parents are repeatedly abusing these children linda you're my cousin but this is out of line listen tomorrow morning a ten-year-old little girl is going to be returned to her mother most likely a little girl who has unexplained bruising all over her back okay so bring the evidence to judge bennett it's been presented edwin judge judge trust me on this okay he's not letting the system work uh who's this judge wait no no no no no wayne no no th this is this is not on the record linda ms goddard this is not the time nor the place the foster care system is designed to protect kids yeah it's the same for adoptive parents but uh both systems are messed up they have its flaws okay yes yes the system has its flaws too many kids no oversight not enough money then these kids are the ones who suffer because of it adoptive parents are the real heroes here along with the brave young women who choose adoption for their kids but nobody you know pays attention to it they ignore it you know it's same thing for foster they face the same treatment you know my wife talks about this all the time all right well then you should talk about it with your lawmakers and i'm telling you wayne this is not on the record okay edwin you know all about foster parenting right family law and you you're the most watched man in ohio guilty i'm hands on every single day in this okay we have influence call me crazy but i say we fix it i say you take it up with your congressman don't you want to make a difference leave a legacy you're close to retirement come on judge we could really make a difference okay all right fine uh i guess i guess we could look into it uh you know get some people together i can do a piece on later tonight that's a great idea yeah we'll get community leaders together and uh we'll talk about the challenges foster adopted parents have to face you know we'll come up with some ideas you know give some helping hands here you know what my wife would be all over this edward all right okay where would we do this i'll talk to tara we'll do it at the church oh the church i thought that was your kryptonite i identify more with hercules actually but still listen i'll i'll take the pastor golfing he loves the golf i'll talk him into it he's a good golfer and speaking of which i still have time to do nine holes before i go in the air tonight come on okay fine the last thing a judge wants to do is come between a family and their children i'll i'll talk to judge bennett tomorrow go thank you nice to meet you she's adorable let's go [Music] so [Music] [Music] hey i'm um i'm on my way to work you try to eat something okay i love you sis [Music] yes jesus loves me yes jesus loves me oh yes jesus loves me the bible tells me so if you're gonna wake me up you could at least sing it good oh all right smarty pants i'm just teasing you because you know that i like it my favorite memories of us ever when you come and sing with me um those are some of my favorite memories to get up oh emma i'm so sorry i think we woke you up hey fun fact did you know that god sings to us it's true elbow says that he actually sings over us as his children imagine that the god of the universe cares about a little older singing songs right that's why i love singing to you guys so much but you do need sleep okay let's get some shut eye love you guys have a good night oh oh how did it go what did he say he gave me the case okay we're gonna postpone parental rights until we can do a home assessment in the meantime emma can stay with the garcias it's judge oh thank you you're the best you did the right thing thank you thank you and don't forget we have a meeting at the church okay 4pm okay thank you they're right inside on the left thank you hey wayne how you doing man what's up good i'm good i'm good good hey um i want to thank you for letting tara and our friends use the church oh absolutely it's our honor you're going to come in and join us are you i think you know how i feel about churches oh yeah that's right all the hypocrites can i just shoot straight with you man i actually think it's a cop-out i think it's funny how everybody blames christians for being hypocrites but what about hip-hop's at your work i mean a newscast or how about the politicians there's plenty of those you and i both know better than that see i think there's hypocrites everywhere i ironically the church is one of the only places where people gather and admit their hypocrites and say i'm here to get help you know wait i know you've been through a lot and we've talked about a lot a lot of frustrations and questions that you have but i want you to know that it's okay to be angry with god he's big enough to handle it so take your time think about this and if you want come in join us we'd love to have you wow can you please help me i already got you covered you're the best thank you [Music] hey guys hey wow this is overwhelming thank you so much for coming today it's uh pretty impressive thank you thank you all for coming today what an amazing turnout it just shows how much this community cares about these kids uh so thank you thank you for showing up look we believe that it will be easiest to tackle this monster if we break it down into groups would you agree definitely okay so uh my trusty assistant linda is gonna lead us off hello everyone hi number of foster kids that we have in ohio and this number has increased by 13 in the last year six thousand that's the number of foster parents we have in the state so you guys can do the math we can talk about a lot of different things here today but i'm telling you this this is the biggest issue okay we need more foster parents more people showing up and caring and loving these kids being the true hands and feet of jesus okay so how do we do that that means that uh family is everything in italian we need to change the family narrative in america a foster kid is still a kid an adopted kid is still a kid and those kids belong to families and we need to support those families and that's legislatively we need more pro-family laws resources our community really needs to support the parents that are opening their doors to these kids hey guys i don't mean to be the pastor of the bunch but i am a pastor and while all these things are correct i truly believe this is a spiritual attack on the families of our culture you better believe it yeah absolutely absolutely so okay let's get started we're gonna break it down first group is legislative who wants to tackle that the congressman's wife great thank you so much uh resources yeah great guys thank you uh oh spiritual you know i'm looking at you pastor you think you can handle this one i've got you you're on fantastic fantastic now the next one is mentorship this is a big one guys and i can tell you after 15 years on the bench these kids need good mentors in their lives who wants to uh who wants to tackle that one jess yeah i'll do it yeah yeah good for you jess i'm proud of you thank you wow okay next uh community and marketing that's ah there he is how you doing young man guys i would like to nominate my good friend wayne and his lovely wife to take over community and marketing i'll thank you in advance so thank you and the last one is activism um and i'll i'll take that if uh agreed to be my partner of course i will fantastic great all right guys look let's divide and conquer meet up and let's solve this problem for these kids okay i didn't know you spoke italian god we know this topic of adoption and foster care is a big topic god we need you you come come alongside these kids and families they would feel the overwhelming sense of our church of the people of this community to surround them to love them and to give them a hope oh god you are a good good father and you have brought us here for such a time as this lord you say in your word that you chose us even before the foundation of the world that we should be holy and blameless that we should be yours in love you predestined us for adoption as sons and daughters through jesus christ that was your will before creation adoption was a part of your design so now father god you've given us just such an incredible opportunity lord to be a part of your beautiful will so in the name of jesus oh lord we thank you that this is your idea that this is your will and so we ask that your will be done that changes be made in people's lives and in their hearts to move forward and to make a change for these beautiful children who are deeply in need of your idea of a family o lord continue to break chains lord that keep us lord from doing and walking in your will lord thank you for choosing us thank you for loving us continue to use us for your glory that we would reach many we love you amen

don't get up no no i'm fine i got this is it what is this is this a science experiment when you're trying to grow up a head thing's got an eyeball oh come on guys what's with the dishes man hey they're ready for you uh all rise hear ye hear ye the ohio family court is now in session the honorable edwin w miller is now presiding thank you you may be seated today is a special day your honor with the court's permission i would like to first start off with a brief opening statement and then proceed with the order you may emma lane johnson an 11 year old little girl had been deprived of the most basic and precious of all human rights the right to grow up in a loving safe nurturing environment however this all changed on july 31st of last year when jason and heather garcia acting as emergency foster care providers welcomed emma into their home the garcia family is a well-suited well-blended family consisting of adopted and foster children and i think it's safe to say emma has truly grown to just adore her foster parents sadly six months after placement emma's biological mother was found deceased by the ohio state police and it also needs to be noted that the birth father has vacated all parental rights however today we are celebrating the garcia family and their willingness to accept emma and welcome her into their home officially making her one of their own we asked the court to confirm the order do you have any objections mrs towns no sir okay you may be seated emma do you have anything you'd like to say um i love them i love them so much please let me stay forever thank you emma you may be seated mr garcia how many children do you and your wife have five your honor and how many of those are adopted and fostered um respectfully your honor we don't use the word adopted or fostering in our house they're just ours well said sir well said would you like to say anything else to the court sir yes your honor if i may i would love to approach emma you may emma i may not have your skin and you may not have my eyes but you'll always have my fart in my 15 years on this bench i have seen the best of families and i have seen the worst of families from what i have seen the key is love unconditional everlasting love emma it is my belief that the garcias would like to share their unconditional everlasting love with you so i asked emma johnson would you like to spend the rest of your life in love with the garcia family how about the rest of the garcia family could you please stand are you ready to be a supportive big sister with everything i have okay you may sit emma johnson this court rules in your favor [Applause] no socks huh yeah the boys showed me that all the hep cats are doing it so now you're taking now you're taking advice from teenage boys on how to dress them that's where we're at yeah so this is where you work yeah you've been here before well it's in your office not the whole here you hear you honorable edwin w miller i'm sure if i came to your work i would be equally as impressed no that was really something i mean adoption is something really special and what you did i just hope that that little girl emma yeah i mean i think i think it'll be a little easier on her knowing that her mother's not alive what do you mean i mean what i mean is like little you know little girls grow up and they start looking for their moms they love their moms but they're dads too i mean but i guess just the pain of you know growing up feeling like uh you weren't wanted by your parents barb i'm i'm not sure what you're

is supporting foster parents you can open up a foster care closet here in your church where people can come to donate clothes furniture even diapers so that the foster parents can have the things they need for free support foster parents by helping give them an evening to themselves volunteer to watch their kids so they can have a night out support adoptive parents with that same passion start mentorship programs at your church be a part of the solution and love the birth mothers and praise them for the unbelievable sacrifice they make and the precious gifts they give us and get legislatively involved i mean that's what helping hands is all about so we invite you to join us and join our community in getting involved in the raising of our children the proverb says to train up
