Do you know of any? I used to belong to a regular adoptive mom's board a while back, but feel that there is such a spiritual component to adoption that it would be great to have the support of other Catholic moms on this particular journey. Any ideas?

I, too, am excited about this! Our 3 adoptions (4 children) were the best things to ever happen to us.
I look fore=ward to being a part of this new forum

I'm intrigued, sounds like more than one forum? Look forward to the 'unveiling'.

Hate to sound like the agency, but...we'll let you know very soon .

We're working on it and it should be up within the month.
