Bethany's international services reflect our belief that children grow best in families. Since 1982, Bethany staff have found permanent families in the United States for thousands of children living in orphanages in Europe, Asia, and Latin America.

In addition, we offer a variety of in-country social services in eight developing and war-torn nations. Bethany is committed to expanding current programs and developing new ways to serve children and families worldwide.

We understand how important it is for you to select a professional, trustworthy adoption agency. For more than 60 years, Bethany Christian Services has helped build families through adoption. Since 1982, Bethany has brought the benefits of international adoption to waiting families in the United States. Our caring, experienced staff members are ready to answer any questions you may have about the international adoption process.
