Coming Home: The Journey to Become Family
Join Ken and Brenda Barker as they begin their adoption journey in India to bring home twin infants. Travel with them to China, and to Latvia where they pioneered the adoption process, becoming the first American family to adopt from that country shortly after the cold war ended. Experience their agony and loss of innocence as they watch their oldest son battle childhood leukemia twice. Three adoption trips later, including to Vietnam and Ethiopia, feel the raw emotions with their grown children as they travel back to their homelands, three of them to reunite with birth mothers and families.
You will laugh out loud, and you will weep as you walk with them in their amazing endeavor to build a family through adoption. “Coming Home” is a story of love and loss, of unspeakable joy and unfathomable heartbreak. It is a true story of a family—built through adoption.
