PRAY For The Release of The Moghadam Family!!

Friends, I can't tell you how burdened I am right now!  Last night I learned of a fellow adoptive family, who is in Ghana completing their adoption of four precious kiddos, and have been wrongly ARRESTED for child-trafficking!!  They had court papers with them, but they were arrested anyway and their 6 CHILDREN, 2 of them AMERICAN children(age 4 and 6), were taken away to a HORRIBLE orphanage!

This is what I know so far. "All we know at this point is that someone called the police to make this (completely unfounded) claim. Next thing you know they were in the back of a police van, all 8 of them, with sirens wailing and headed to child trafficking HQ. After that the children were remanded to a government orphanage (which is NOT a good orphanage) including the bio kids (who are VERY young) and the parents were put in jail. After that her cell phone battery died, so nobody's heard from her since."


The US Embassy is refusing to do ANYTHING until MONDAY morning, and that is NOT acceptable!!



They are with Dillon International, and since Ghana is a pilot program, they don't have a lot of contacts in Ghana, so we need to stand in the gap and PRAY, CALL, EMAIL congressman John Campbell.  We need you to contact the US Embassy in Ghana.  And also the Department of State.  Contact ANYONE you think can help!  This family is from California, so representatives from that state are best.  I will have links at the bottom of this post for these.


Here is a short video of the Moghadam family.
