ABOUT US

Hello!

We are Paul and Lisa Bowden from Alexandria, MN. Our family hosted, through God's leading and provision, an orphaned sibling group of 4 from the Ukraine during the summer of 2015.

This was an amazing life-experience that changed the course of our family.  Through our hosting adventure, God allowed connections to form with Ukrainian and American contacts, to help other families make an impact in a child's life through orphan hosting.

We started Courageous Families in 2017! In addition to helping families participate in orphan hosting, it is our hope that this organization will continue to grow and become a resource for local adoptive and foster families. Will you join in our efforts?
