Chasteen Family Adoption

As many of you know, we adopted our daughter, Zoe, from China almost 4  years ago and more recently we've been foster parents in the Greater  Boston Area. Over the past few months God has really given us unity and  clarity about moving forward to pursue another adoption from China. We  love foster care and plan to continue fostering for respite, short term  and possibly emergency (weekends) care. We have officially started our  process to adopt from China again. From what our agencies are telling  us, it looks like our adoption could take anywhere from 12 to 18 months. We have been moving quickly through the process and hope to be closer to the 12 month timeline!


We  know this is where our family is being led. Our adoption will be a  journey of faith for us. Please pray as we seek to discern the details  of what lies ahead. Pray for wisdom, discernment and for financial  provision. The total cost of our adoption will be around $40,000. We are  in a position to cover a little bit of this, thanks to the income from  VIPKID and Rodan and Fields. But, we know we cannot cover it all. Thanks to generous gifts, our shirt fundraiser and our extra income, we've been able to cover all of our adoption costs so far. We have applied for grants and are praying for provision there. We've set our remaining goal for fundraising at $15,000. This goal, combined with projected grant money and our extra income, should put us at near fully funded!

We saw the Lord provide in tremendous ways with Zoe’s adoption and have no doubt this time will be  the same. Would you prayerfully consider giving to help us meet this need and move forward? Please know, your support is much appreciated. We are thrilled to be on this journey and are so thankful for family and friends who love and support  us. 


Much love, Jon and Leigh.
