are adopting a child from United States of America

We have big news! We are adopting another child!

We have been married for 25 years, and we have three biological children and one adopted child. Our motivation for adopting a second time is to be the hands and feet of Christ by providing a loving, Christian home for a child whose mother chooses life despite her circumstances.

As the price for our adoption is $80,000 plus travel and lodging, we have decided to start a crowdfunding campaign to help ease the financial burden. We are so excited to bring a beautiful new life into our home, and by inviting you to be a part of this process, we hope you will feel like part of the community we hope to build around our little one as he or she grows up.

We were chosen by a mom to be the forever family of her baby and we do look at this as a ministry . However the birth mom backed out of this adoption close to her due date and decided to raise her baby . We did pay for living expenses for her and this is unrefundable however if this is what it took for her to get back on her feet and her life in order to raise her baby praise God we were able to help. This has however set us back in funds for the next mom who chooses us for her baby . You never know the end of the story but Christ does and praise Him for guiding us along this wonderful journey!

We have set a goal of $80,000, and anything above that amount will be used to set up a zero percent interest loan to help other Christian families pursuing adoption.

We appreciate anything you are able to give. Thank you for helping us make a generational change in the life of our sweet baby.
