McKenzie Kids Residential Treatment

Donation protected
Bryan and Julia have not asked for financial help, but I know they are in need of it and felt lead to create this fundraiser.  They have 3 children in residential treatment right now, and I personally know how expensive that can be.    I will be managing the funds and 100% of the donations will go towards the treatment expenses for their children. 
Bryan and Julia McKenzie have 4 grown biological children and 8 adopted children still living at home.  God called them to adopt 1 child from Guatemala,  1 domestically and a sibling group of 4 from Ethopia. 


After bringing home their 4 older children from Ethiopia in 2012, they realized that there were 2 more siblings left behind.  In the spring of 2016 they finalized the adoption of their teenage children and returned home with them from Ethiopia.  Unknown to Bryan and Julia, the 6 siblings had suffered significant trauma and abuse while in Ethiopia.  They require extensive treatment; currently they have 3 children in residential treatment centers in NC receiving treatment for various psychiatric issues.  Bryan and Julia have been faithful to God's calling to care for orphans - and have opened their hearts and homes to children who are orphans no more.  Please join them in this journey, and help support their efforts to provide healing to their children by providing support for their residential treatment.  Please also remember them in your prayers!!!
