Synopsis

When Kim de Blecourt and her husband decided to adopt a child from Ukraine, they knew that the process might be challenging. Nothing, however, could have prepared de Blecourt for the twisted nightmare she would endure. During her year-long struggle to extricate her newly adopted little boy from that post-Soviet country's corrupt social service and judicial systems, de Blecourt was intimidated, physically assaulted, and arrested. Worse, her months of loneliness, worry, and fear drove her to the brink of spiritual despair. But God had no intention of abandoning de Blecourt or her family. Her amazing story-culminating in a spine-chilling race to freedom-offers dramatic proof that God's light shines on even in the deepest darkness.

Quotes

"Until We All Come Home reveals in harrowing detail the great complexity and sacrifice that can come with choosing to love even a single orphan. It's not cute or easy, and often it pulls us into a world of difficult and costly choices that lead far from the tidy realm we once inhabited. As Kim de Blecourt shows, however, such a journey can transform lives-for an orphan, for ourselves and for others as well."—Jedd Medefind, President, Christian Alliance for Orphans and former Special Assistant to the President (George W. Bush) and Director of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives

"Kim de Blecourt's story is amazing--and I never use the word amazing. Her courage in the face of persecution and obstacles will inspire you as you turn the pages of her adoption saga, a tale like none other. Until We All Come Home reads like a novel, and will enthrall you with each nail-biting episode until the blockbuster conclusion. The difference is, Kim really lived this story, and her profound devotion for her little boy is a tribute to a mother's love, and to God's care and shelter in the worst circumstances."—Lorilee Craker, journalist and New York Times best-selling author of 11 books, including Through the Storm with Lynne Spears and Money Secrets of the Amish.
