Hello! Thank you so much for taking the time to read about our family in our hopes to adopt a baby.
We are Ethan & Ashlen – we have been married for a little over 10 years and adopted our first child, Clara, a little over a year ago.
Due to risks with Ashlen becoming pregnant, the Lord led us to pursue growing our family through adoption, and we are SO thankful that He did. Clara has been the sweetest blessing & we are so grateful to have her as our daughter. She will be the best big sister!
Due to the financial strain of the adoption process, we are asking you to partner with us prayerfully and/or financially. The finances cover all of the pre-qualification costs to adopt, the agency fee, finances to care for the birth mother pre and post baby, and travel expenses.
We are so excited to say that we have been rewarded a $5,000 matching grant fund awarded by the Matthew 6 Foundation in Naples, Florida, and a $4,000 matching grant funded by Lifesong for Orphans.
We believe that God calls us to care for orphans, and we are so excited to invite you into this journey with us!

In Christ,
