Phil & Holly Blanton

are adopting a child from United States of America

Hello Friends and Family! We are so excited to announce to you that we are starting our adoption journey through an organization called Lifetime Adoption!

After a few years of infertility issues with us, we began praying over adoption for us. Holly has always had a desire to adopt and this was a clear indication that adoption would be part of our story in some way.

Over the years, we both have taken great comfort in knowing that the Author and Perfecter of our faith has always been, and always will be, in control. God has been so gracious and merciful in His dealings with us and has proven Himself time and time again to be faithful, even in the really trying times. Because of this, we recognize His hand in this process and walk confidently toward becoming parents.

At this time, we have both felt led to choose the path of infant domestic adoption. Although there are many variables, the average length of time to adopt is estimated to be between two and three years, at a cost ranging from $30,000 to $60,000. This is why we have set a goal of $50,000 to help ease the financial burden that often overwhelms adoptive parents.

We know that there is no shortage of giving opportunities, but would you prayerfully consider partnering with us in the fundraising process? If you don’t feel led to do that, we would be so grateful if you would pray for us as we continue down this path. Please pray that the Lord would be faithful to provide, and that He would prepare our hearts and minds for parenthood.

Thank you so much, from the bottom of our hearts, for joining us on this journey!

Why we are choosing adoption!!
July 8, 2025

Here’s a little background on why we are choosing adoption!! ☺️

Both Phil and I have always dreamed of becoming parents. We however, met and were married later in life. As I am in my late 30’s and Phil is in his mid 50’s we are more than ready to be able to have our first child.

A little medical history about me. I was diagnosed with PCOS back when I was a teenager. Having this makes it hard to conceive a child. I was also prescribed to take oral infertility medications but with no success. I’ve been to see an infertility specialist and them as well as my OBGYN have encouraged me to look into IVF treatments but this is not what we feel The Lord is wanting for us.

Adoption kept coming up and we both feel that The Lord has chosen us to grow our little family in this way. Just as the Lord has adopted us as His sons and daughters, we want to be able to show this same love to a precious little one.

We would greatly appreciate your prayers and encouragement on this journey.🩷🩵
