Yes, we're so excited to grow our family through adoption! And we want to invite you to join us in bringing our baby home!
For those of you who know us well, the fact that we are adopting will come as no surprise! Even before we got married, it was somehow just clear for both of us that we wanted to one day expand our family through adoption - it was a matter of “when”, not “if”. We believe that all children need a loving and safe family and that people in vulnerable situations, especially mamas and their little ones, are close and precious to Father God’s heart. We have a deep sense that we are called to join with His loving redemptive heart through adoption.
As you may know, adoption is a beautiful but costly process, involving legal fees, home studies, travel expenses, and more. We are committed to doing everything we can to meet these costs.
Still, we know we can’t do it alone.
That’s why we’re inviting you to be part of our ADOPTION PUZZLE FUNDRAISER—a meaningful way to help us bring our child home!
HOW IT WORKS: We’ve chosen a special 2000-piece puzzle to symbolize our adoption journey. Each piece costs $20, and you can sponsor as many pieces as you’d like, donating here through the Adopt Together platform.
If you sponsor one piece, we’ll write your name on the back of the puzzle piece.
If you sponsor multiple pieces, you can send us a short message to write on the back of the section of pieces you sponsored.
When completed, we’ll frame the puzzle in a double-sided transparent frame so that both sides are visible as a cherished keepsake, a reminder of God’s faithfulness and the incredible love and support of our worldwide community.
Beyond financial support, we deeply appreciate your love, encouragement, and prayers as we navigate this journey! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being part of this adventure. Your support—whether through this fundraiser, encouraging words, or simply cheering us on—means the world to us.
With love and gratitude, Rachael & Michaja
P.S. Feel free to share this fundraiser with others who might want to join in!
***if you want your name to appear on the puzzle, it's helpful for us if you at least identify your first name when you make the donation, or message us personally via FB/IG/email after you've donated. Thanks!
