We are excited to announce that we are adopting a child. Continue scrolling to learn more about our journey and how you can join us.
HOW DID WE GET HERE?
We’ve always wanted to start a family, but have been walking through a season of infertility for the last 5 years since being married in 2019. Through this period of waiting, we've learned to rely on God for His timing and He's strengthened our marriage. We will be adopting an infant from the U.S. Our desire is to build a family, raising our child(ren) with unconditional love, and a lifetime of support, and guidance. As adoptive parents, we will carry this responsibility with immense love, humility, and lifelong commitment.
OUR ADOPTION PROMISE
We desire to give a supportive home and our unconditional love to a child, understanding that adoption is a lifelong commitment to love, nurture, and learn together as a family. We are filled with excitement and gratitude as God leads us in building our family. As we dream of the future, we are ready and excited for the journey ahead.
We've been busy preparing for the little one that will call us mom & dad and can't wait to welcome them into our home. As we continue on this path, we welcome you to join us and be a "piece" of our "puzzle" on the adoption journey. We hope that by inviting you into this process, you will see yourself as part of the community we hope to build around our child as they grow up. You can join us by praying for our future child, their birth parents, and for us. You can also help us reach our goal with a financial gift.
Our cost for adoption will be $40,000 or more. Would you consider helping us reach our goal?

You can help us prepare for the arrival of our little one by purchasing items on our baby registry on Amazon. We don't know when placement will take place but it could be anytime. Having everything ready for the baby's arrival will help with a smooth transition.
• Pray for the child we are about to adopt. We don't know who they are yet but God does.
• Pray for the birth parents and the decisions they will make.
• Pray for us as we prepare for life to look different. Pray for the finances needed to adopt and for God's guidance after adoption.
• Pray for the future of the child and that God will enable us to be godly parents.
