We’re adopting! We have always known adoption would be a part of our family story and believe God has confirmed it again and again. We began the official process of educating ourselves and partnering with adoption agencies a little over a year ago. We are very excited and want to invite you to partner with us as we add to our family through adoption.
Here are some ways you can help partner with us:
1. Pray. Pray for our family in this waiting season. Pray for the expecting mom that will choose our family to parent her baby.
2. Give financially. One of the greatest barriers in adopt is the cost. Our goal is to raise $45,000 to cover legal fees, birth mother expenses, and travel expenses.
We currently have donors that are willing to match the first $10,000 that we raise. We ask that you help us maximize this gracious gift.
3. Share our story!
We are committed to supporting, cherishing, and providing a safe and loving home and family to our future child. Thank you for joining us in this journey!
