We are adopting a child! Since before we were married we talked about wanting to adopt "someday." Now seems like the time in which God is directing us to start this process! Knowing that we ourselves are adopted into the family of God through Jesus Christ is motivating us to adopt a child to display the Gospel.
We are beyond excited and are doing everything we can to be prepared to welcome a beautiful new life into our home. As part of our adoption process, we have started a crowdfunding campaign. It may surprise you to hear that adoption related costs can easily total up to $40,000 or more. This is why we have set a goal of $39,000 to help ease the financial burden that often overwhelms adoptive parents.
Thank you all for being a part of our growing family. Through your generosity God uses you to make what seems impossible a reality. Every one of you who has helped us is a special member of the Cabalka family (our kids have more "aunts" and "uncles" than they can count!).
Reach out! We would love to get together to talk about adopting. Soli Deo Gloria.
Father of the fatherless and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation. -Psalm 68:1
In love [God] predestined us for adoption to Himself as sons through Jesus Christ , according to the purpose of His will, to the praise of His glorious grace, with which He has blessed us in the Beloved. -Ephesians 1:5,6
