As some of you know, we have BIG news! We are in the process of adopting a child. We have been praying about this for quite a while; and we’re excited to start this new adventure. It has been amazing to see how the LORD has helped us so far in this process and how people have been such a huge support already. We are beyond excited to welcome a beautiful new life into our home and we cannot wait to see all that God has in store.
As part of our adoption process, we have started a crowdfunding campaign. It may surprise you to hear that adoption related costs can easily total up to $35,000 or more. This why we have set a goal of $35,000 to hopefully help ease the financial burden that often overwhelms many adoptive parents.
Thank you for your support, whether it is through prayers or donations. We appreciate all of the support we can get as we are on the adoption journey.
Love,
Jeff and Rebekah
Hey all,
I know it's been a while, but we just want to update you all with what is going on. Since Mid February, we have been working with Premier Adoption out of the Southwest United States for matching. We are excited to partner with them and we hope to hear from them any day now for a potential match. We also have just finished making the nursery (final pictures to follow) and we are hosting a yard sale at Hebron Church in Dacula, GA on Saturday, 25 March, 2023 from 9 AM-1 PM EST. We welcome you to stop by and visit and we will have access for our tshirt fundraisers: https://www.bonfire.com/canterbury-tales-of-adoption/?fbclid=IwAR2ChkaVtbvkZysN_R0IzCsRpw7-Pflywpi54fC57BmemQoM4yscwLXlk-w.

Please pray for this event and for the waiting period as Rebekah and I wait to be matched.
!!!Update!!!
We just found out that our Home Study was APPROVED ❤️ To God be the glory! We’re absolutely ecstatic right now, because we also turned in our info for our Profile book today too.
Thank you all for your prayers!
Good Morning everyone,
I apologize that it has been a while since I have been able to post; Rebekah and I have been very busy working on our home study as well as a short vacation at the end of September. I do want to announce that we are nearing the finish line for our home study! There have been some set backs and rather expensive costs that have come with completing our home study but we should be finished within the next week. The final things that we are wrapping up is our educational requirements, the final approval for our septic tank, and finalization for our self studies. While challenging, we are thankful for God's blessing and grace to us in handling these setbacks.
We are also working on our profile book for our consultant and are hoping to complete it before Christmas.
Continue to pray for us as we seek the Lord's will in this adoption journey.
Blessings to you all,
Jeff and Rebekah Canterbury
