Kurt and Melissa felt at the end of last year that God was calling them to pursue adoption for the third time. They also felt that God was asking them to adopt an older child. In March of this year they completed their homestudy. Two days later they got a phone call about a 10 year old little girl that needed immediate placement. With God's grace they jumped into action and sweet Aurie was placed in their home. Because this placement was so fast, there was no time to raise funds. There are so many costs that come with adoption. The homestudy cost, the monthly post placement visits, the lawyer costs. This can be very daunting. With your help, the Neil family can finish paying for the costs to adopt this precious girl.
