Troy and Jessica Erichsen
are adopting a child from United States of America
We have exciting news to share – our family is embarking on another beautiful adoption journey! After being incredibly blessed through foster care adoption, we feel God calling us to grow our family once again through private infant adoption.
This decision hasn’t been made lightly. We’ve spent countless hours in prayer, seeking God’s guidance for our family’s next chapter. Through this time of reflection and discussion, He has made it clear that this is the path He has chosen for us. We feel an overwhelming sense of peace knowing we’re following His plan for our lives and our family.
As we prepare our hearts and home to welcome a precious new baby, we’re also facing the practical aspects of private adoption. The process involves significant expenses – including agency fees, legal costs, and support for expectant mothers – which typically total $40,000 or more. While these numbers might seem daunting, we’re stepping forward in faith, trusting that God will provide the means to bring our future child home.
To help make this dream a reality, we’ve set a fundraising goal of $30,000. We believe God has placed this calling on our hearts, and just as He’s faithful in all things, He will be faithful in providing the resources needed to grow our family through adoption. Every contribution, no matter the size, is a reminder of His provision and the beautiful community He’s placed around us.

Exciting news!
January 20, 2026Hi friends,
We wanted to share some encouraging news with you! Our profile books are now being actively shown to expectant mothers, which means we're one step closer to meeting our little one. Every time our agency reaches out to let us know a birth mom is reviewing our profile, our hearts skip a beat. We're so grateful to be in this position and trust that God's timing is perfect, even when the waiting feels long.
We also have some exciting news to share – we were recently selected as recipients of a $1,000 grant from Ready for Kids, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting adoptive families! We are deeply honored and humbled by their generosity. This grant brings us closer to our goal and reminds us of how many people are cheering us on in this journey.
Your support – whether through donations, prayers, or simply following along – means the world to us. Troy and I, along with our kiddos, are so thankful for this community rallying around our family.
We'll continue to keep you posted as things progress.Thank you for being part of our story!
Jessica, Troy & family
