Afterthoughts
Valerie Huber's
Work Continues
In the Winter 1999
Inspire, we shared how
Valerie Dell Huber'80 is
helping to teach abstinence
in Ohio schools. Valerie
writes,"As a result of the
Inspire article, the health
educator from Greene
County(a Cedarville
alumnus)came to one of
our in-service dates and
will probably use our
materials. Additionally, the
national director ofTeen
Aid may be interested in
collaborating the statistical
results to our program for a
national survey on the
effectiveness of abstinence
education. Dr. Merlin
Ager'60(our evaluator) is
looking into professional
journal publication for the
future."
I'm constantly
amazed at how
God ispropelling
our efforts!Ifeel
like I'm barely
able to keep up—
things are moving
so quickly.
She continues,"I'm
constantly amazed at how
God is propelling our
efforts! I feel like I'm
barely able to keep up—
things are moving so
quickly. I'm seeing prayers
answered already that I
expected to be long-term
requests. ... My prayer is
that God will use me in
some way to wake up our
Christian community."
"Let the Children
Come: Five Stories
of Compassion"
Never have we received
such an influx of responses
to a story! The five stories
of adoption of Chinese
children must have touched
hearts. The following are a
few comments and updates.
Adrienne Butterfield
Zwart'92 writes,"I can't
thank you enough for
including the adoption
stories in the last Inspire.
Hearing stories of others
that have gone through the
process is so encouraging to
those like my husband and I
who are beginning the
process. My desire to adopt
internationally started back
at Cedarville during a
research project on Tibet
where I learned of China's
one-child rule."
The other day she
asked me where
her brother was.
When Itold her
she didn't have
one, she asked,
"Can wego to
Kmartandget
one.
"One of the things I found
most encouraging was that
God provided financially
for these families. We have
met the financial
requirements set by INS,
but have not been able to
proceed because of the
agency expenses. So we
continue to wait for God's
direction. Megan,our soon-
to-be three-year-old, is not
