Sallie & Joey Best

We have big news! We are adopting a child… AGAIN!

We are beyond excited to welcome a new life into our home and go from a family of 3 to 4. We’re sure there are lots of questions that you may have, and the one we’ve received the most so far is, “How can we help?” The process we’ve begun will be a long one, so there are two main ways we could use your support right now.

• The adoption process could take anywhere from 4 months to a year. Because of that, we would greatly appreciate your partnership through prayer that the Lord would give us clarity, peace, patience, and everything else needed to love our future baby and their birth family well, as well as prayers for our hearts (and Noah’s) as we adjust to having another baby in the house.

• While we feel strongly about the Lord’s call to adoption, it does not come without some financial strain. It may surprise you to hear that adoption-related costs can easily total up to $35,000 or more. For our agency, the anticipated cost is $45,271. We have begun raising funds to offset the various application, training, agency, and legal fees that we will encounter. If you feel comfortable, we would love your support financially in this process.

If you feel inclined to support through a registry, we have one as well! It’s a bit smaller since we have so many things from Noah, but we’ll still need some things to adapt to a family of 4! Here is the link: https://my.babylist.com/joey-and-sallie-best

We’re so excited and can’t wait for Noah to be a big brother!
