Greg and Christina Payne

are adopting a child from United States of America

We are beyond excited to announce that we are adopting again!

As we began the incredible journey of marriage, we prayed for God to grow our family by blessing us with the gift of children. We experienced loss over the next couple of years through miscarriages, yet we both remained confident in our faith and knew God wanted us to be parents one day. God then began to reveal His plans for us to raise a child through an adoption story. His plans for our family led us to the most precious gift of adopting our wonderful daughter, June. We have delighted in her since the moment we met her. We have always desired to grow our family with another little one and considered having a biological child next. But through God’s guidance and provision, we feel strongly about adopting again so our children can share the special bond of being adopted.

We have partnered with a wonderful local adoption agency called Christian Adoption Services, and we are a waiting family ready to be matched with an expectant birth mother.

We have learned so much about adoption and continue to learn more through each step in the process. The more we learn, the more we hold adoption even closer to our hearts as we wait for our next bundle of joy. The journey is not without significant financial costs, and we thank you for considering to embark on this new adventure with our family by supporting us and praying for us.

    T-Shirts Have Arrived!

    June 30, 2024

    We are incredibly grateful to all of our friends and family who are supporting us financially with our adoption. We ordered t-shirts to give as a gift to our donors as a little way to say a huge "thank you" from us. It takes a village to raise a family especially with an adoption journey, and we are super excited to recognize many loved ones as our VILLAGE with this gift.

    Let us know if you want to be part of our village! It just takes a donation through AdoptTogether at whatever amount you want to chip in to get one of these cool shirts! DM us on Facebook or Instagram with your adult T-Shirt size if you would like one.

    Just for awareness - our fees are a little over $40k, and we’ve paid a significant amount already. These funds allow our agency to minister to all birth moms they work with even if they don’t place their child for adoption. They provide counseling, help pay living costs, and coordinate all the details of their plans. Birth moms are invited to retreats any year they want to go and also connect with other birth moms through the agency to process their journeys together. The agency's adoption counselors have amazing hearts for birth moms and provide wonderful one-on-one care to them - all while sharing God's love for them. The fees also pay for legal and admin expenses.

    A huge thanks to all of you who have become our VILLAGE through your prayers and generosity!
