is adopting a child from United States of America

Dear Friends & Family, We are growing our family through adoption, and we have great news!

Thank you for supporting our journey! Donations to our Adopt Together fund are tax deductible and will be used to help offset the agency and legal fees that have been quite costly.

Blessings, Rachel & Joseph

    Dec 1, 2022 - Our baby daughter is home!

    December 1, 2022

    Dear Family and Friends,
    We are overjoyed to announce that a precious birth mother selected us to parent her beautiful infant daughter! God orchestrated events and used our adoption agency to bring our daughter home to us! We are in love with our girl! Thanksgiving was truly a time of joy and thankfulness. We look forward to celebrating Christmas together as family of 3!

    The adoption process will take at least 6 months. Continue to pray for us during this time. We also welcome donations to offset the agency and legal fees that have been quite costly. Once the adoption is final, we will post pictures of our sweet daughter and officially announce her name.

    The journey has been long but worth everything to have our daughter home!

    Thank you & happy holidays,
    Rachel & Joseph

    November 2022 - Waiting

    November 3, 2022

    Dear friends and family,
    After many months of paperwork and assessments, we were registered as an adoptive family in September 2021. We have now been with our adoption agency for 14 months. Although the wait feels endless, we trust that God has a plan for us. Our dearest desire is to become parents in His perfect time.

    Our agency experienced a significant drop in the number of adoptions. It is encouraging that they placed several babies recently. To make us available to more birth parents, we expanded our family profile removing limitations. We pray that this step brings us closer to whatever God has in store for our future.

    Please pray that we experience hope in the waiting. Our own prayers are for the birth parents we have yet to meet and for our future child. This process is messy, painful, and beautiful. When the time comes, we will be elated but will also request prayers for the peace of all involved.

    The nursery in our home is ready, our arms are ready to hold, and our hearts have expanded to love. Our entire family awaits their new relative with anticipation. In this in-between season, we have remained busy with work, home projects, and church activities. Joseph accepted a new position at the hospital that allows us to spend evenings together. We look forward to the day when our precious child joins us. Thank you for supporting us in this journey.

    Waiting,
    Joseph and Rachel

    Hitchcock Family - Still Waiting

    March 21, 2022

    We would like to thank everyone who has been supporting us with prayer, words of encouragement, and through donations to our adoption fund through AdoptTogether. Waiting isn't easy but we know that our family will grow at the perfect time. We wanted to take this opportunity to share portions of our Birth Parents Letter. If you now of a birth family considering adoption placement, please refer them to our agency, Covenant Care Adoptions at 1-866-813-8655.

    Dear Birth Parents,
    Thank you so much for considering our family. We can only imagine the great love you have for your child and thank you for considering adoption. Your strength and wisdom are to be admired, and we will continue to pray as you make the generous and difficult choice to place your child with a family. We already love and pray for you daily. You are our hero and an eternal blessing.
    Our hearts and arms are ready to love and nurture your child. We have a home, close extended family, and a faith community that will partner with us for your child's lifetime. We will ensure your child has every need met and many of the wants. We look forward to giving your child a warm and safe home to grow up. Your child will have two sets of grandparents eager to shower affection, play at the park or the swim at the pool. We will take family beach trips together every summer with all of us in one big house near the ocean. Your child will play regularly with cousins, aunts, and uncles during our frequent gathering.
    If you choose us, rest assured that we will share our Christian faith with your child. He or she will have opportunities to enjoy kids church, summer camps, and all sort of church activities to help build a strong foundation, personal character, and friendships.
    We look forward to sharing your child’s adoption story. Your child will know that his birth family adored them and that the act of adoption is the most courageous and loving act. Your child will know that you gave us all the gift of family. You will always be dearly loved and cherished.
    Although we tried to have our own biological children, that door closed for us. It was very hard, but God has better plans. We believe that God has a child for us. We are humbled, honored, and excited that you would choose us as your child’s mom and dad.
    Thank you for taking the time to read this letter and look through our profile.
    Sincerely,
    Hitchcock Family
