We are so excited to officially announce that our family will soon(ish) be growing!!
Since Keith and I first started talking about having a family, we have both known that our hearts were longing to adopt locally. About two years ago Keith and I went on a beach weekend with the sole purpose of praying for our future child and reaching out to different adoption agencies to try and figure out our next steps. We ended up connecting with Bethany Christian Services and have been walking with them in preparation for the past year and a half. We have spent countless hours filling our stacks of paperwork, saving up money, praying for our future little one, and going through training to help us be as prepared as possible for what is to come.
After all this work we are excited to say that our home study was finally approved!!
If you would like to follow along on our adoption journey, feel called to help financially, or are looking for specific ways you can pray for us during this time please look at our website for any and all information! We have some really neat things that we are selling in order to raise some funds and will keep people up to date via this site as our adoption case evolves. Thank you so much for being part of our adoption story!
