Almost as soon as we planned to have a family, we planned to adopt. Our family believes that God has done an incredible thing by inviting His enemies to become His heirs, and that there is no more beautiful representation of that kindness than adoption. From the beginning, we structured our home around the unifying metaphor of the Team.
In professional soccer, the creation of a new club through a merger is symbolized with a simple adjective: United. Some of the world’s most storied teams carry that name, joining together disparate histories of triumph and tragedy to form a new culture in pursuit of their collective dreams. We seek to do the same.
A strong team needs more than a few good players. It needs wise leaders, visionary managers, and passionate supporters. Dedicated teammates, gathered by a variety of methods to carry a single banner. No matter how they come together, every piece of the puzzle makes the whole unit stronger.
We are Jones Family United. And we’re ready for the next member of our team.
Thanks to Karis Adoption Fund and Lifesong for Orphans for awarding our team $8,000 in matching grant funds to help build the team!
