We have BIG news!
We are adopting a child from China!
God plants seeds in our life, some seen, some unseen. Brandon grew up with a foster sister and that love was embedded in his heart. As a young couple, we discussed the option of adoption from day one. In the early years of our marriage, we focused on our careers, and then were eventually blessed with our son, Ezra. We grew content as a family of three, but knew in our hearts there was always room for one more. On a Mission Trip to the Dominican Republic in 2016, we were blessed to work with children and see first hand that God's love has no boundaries and can overcome any obstacle. Then there was that moment — the one where God said, “See, this is what I have planned for you”. From that very moment, we have been obedient in pursuing the daughter God has always intended for us.
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 are so expensive. This is why we have set a goal of $35,000. Along with every adoption comes HUGE expenses and fees. Lawyer fees, legal fees, travel fees, medical expenses… it goes on and on…
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 she grows up. On behalf of the Gray family, THANK YOU for investing in this adoption both financially and prayerfully.
"Whoever receives one little child like this in My name receives Me." - Matthew 18:5
