I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase “it takes a village to raise a child” we believe it also takes a village to bring one home. We’re so thankful that you’re a part of our village.
Gabrielle and Joshua have had a passion for adoption for a long time now. For Gabrielle, she can remember back as far as to when she was 13 and made a thorough PowerPoint presentation in hopes of convincing her parents to adopt. God's call got louder and louder over the years with every nannying job, mission trip, and her previous career as a children's special needs therapist. All reinforcing her love for children and her desire to be able to give that love to children in need. When Gabrielle and Joshua met they quickly bonded over the truth that children are a blessing from the Lord and adoption was one of their very first conversations. Luckily, Joshua had the same passion as Gabrielle and had spent much of his life involved and working in the foster care system. Over the years of their marriage they have prayed about when the right time to adopt would be and realized there would never be a "perfect time" and that if God was calling, He would provide. And much to their surprise a couple weeks after starting the process a situation was presented to them that quickly turned into a match. They are so thankful to be able to take you all on this journey with them and thank you so much for your generosity. "I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert." Isaiah 43:19
