Ethan and I have felt a strong and confident desire to adopt, even before we were married. In November 2016, we realized that we had separately been considering the idea of growing our family through adoption before trying to have biological children. Over the months that followed, we prayed for wisdom in making that decision, and spent time educating ourselves on what it would look like to say yes. Through prayer, research and education, our desire and dedication to move forward have only grown. So, we are moving forward in assurance that God has given us this desire and placed this call on our lives. While there will always be uncertainties and anxieties in making life changing decisions, we move forward in the unshakable knowledge that we walk with Jesus. His presence alone is enough to cast out any fear.
On September 26th, 2017 we made an official step forward by completing our first home study. We are slowly and eagerly moving towards becoming a waiting family! Though our timeline is unknown, and the process feels daunting at times, we believe in a big God. We are excited to see what He does, even in the midst of waiting.
When you choose to help fund our adoption you are helping to make all of this possible. We believe the in power of community, especially when it comes to raising a family. We have been overwhelmed by the encouragement and support from loved ones and are so excited for our child to come into the love and support we have been so graciously blessed with.
We cannot thank you enough for taking the time to visit out page.
Much Love,
E & L
