Book Synopsis

''There are a few rare occasions in life, when events seem to conspire in a profound and extraordinary way. In those moments God pulls back the curtain on his plans and you get to see a glimpse of what he has in store in you. In the end you are clearer on your life''s purpose and destiny. This was one of those moments.''

AS MANY AS THE STARS tells the story of how one man moved with his wife and six young children from the UK to China to follow God''s call. Robert Glover was a social worker in the East of England who went on to radically transform Chinese government''s policy on care welfare. In conversations with the Chinese government Robert fought to show that family-based fostering and adoption was a better alternative to the system of state-sponsored orphanages.

In 1998, Robert pioneered the first small pilot project in Shanghai. In the same year Care for Children was founded as a charity as the first joint venture social welfare project between the Britis
