Finding My Mother: a story of one woman’s search

Filed under: Faith,Latest News,Limbs on the Family Tree — Tags: adoption, Natalie Jost — Christa Allan @ 5:00 pm

Over four years ago, my multi-talented web designer friend Natalie Jost, wrote a blog post about her search to find her birth mother. She generously offered one of her books as a giveaway on my blog so that others could read of her challenges and gain hope.

Natalie is one of the most soul-baring, deeply honest, and truly humble women I know. She’s not afraid to rock the boat of complacency if it will move it closer to the shore where Jesus waits. Her book,  Finding My Mother, offers hope and courage to other adopted children who are beginning or in the midst of their searches.

Half of all proceeds from the sale of her book and its companion journals will go to support CASA, an organization that uses volunteers to act as advocates for children caught between their birth parents and “the system” trying to help them, and similar organizations.

Please leave a comment to have a chance to be sent this book. Click HERE for information about PDF downloads and journals. And while you’re in her web neighborhood, check out her textiles and paper goods at her Olive Manna store online.

    This sounds like it would be a fantastic book – I can’t imagine the agony of not knowing your birth mother. Thanks for sharing. :-D

    I would love to win this– not for myself but for a friend who found out she was adopted at the age of 25. By the time she found her birth mother, the woman had died. She has been able to get to know the woman’s husband and two sons– her half brothers– since then and counts them as blessings in her life. I am sure she would love this book!
