 Exciting Update for Our Adoption Journey! 

We are incredibly grateful to share that we have been awarded a $7,000 matching grant through Lifesong for Orphans to help financially support our adoption. This means that every dollar donated toward our adoption will be matched up to $7,000, doubling the impact of each gift.

Our goal date for the grant is May 31, though donations will continue to be accepted until our adoption is complete.

First and foremost, we ask for prayer. Please pray for the birth mom and child that God has for our family, and for us as we trust Him in this journey and His plan to grow our family through adoption.

Secondly, if you feel led, would you consider making a tax-deductible donation to help us cover some of the expenses involved in the adoption process? Every gift, no matter the size, helps bring us one step closer to welcoming a child into our family.
