Check out our latest video here: https://vimeo.com/123728631 Bri and I have always considered the act of adoption as one of the most significant and loving actions one can do for another. Although our hearts have been open to the idea of adopting a child for a very long time, we thought that the right time would be after we first had biological children. However, Bri and I havent been able to have biological children for 5 years which as you might imagine has been difficult. When you carry such an intense longing to be parents but are considered a case of unexplained infertility, you cannot help but be shaken to the core a little. Fortunately, it has provided the opportunity to grow together in our marriage, in our personal faith in Christ, and in our perspective on the family. We were inspired to action one morning after reading an email from a missionary in the Philippines. An infant had been left on their front porch that day in the hopes that someone would take care of the child. Our hearts were changed that day. We realized that children exist right now in the world who in many cases don't know what love is, don't know what family is. They don't know what it means to be significant or wanted. Could God use our infertility as His opportunity to reach into a child's life somewhere in the world and show them that they are loved and are significant and can be a part of a family for eternity? That's our hope!
