Teta Adoption Fund (Stanbery)

Donation protected

Six years ago, the Lord laid it on the heart of Robert and Tona Teta to open their hearts to adoption.  Those of you who know them know they already had a happy, full home with four children of their own....two of which have had significant health challenges.  Anyway, they were obedient to the Lord and after years of preparation, adopted 3 siblings in November of last year who had been victims of terrible abuse and face many challenges because of it.  If that wasn't enough, they were recently informed that the biological parents had given birth to another child who was taken away as an infant due to severe abuse.  They prayed about it and couldn't imagine turning their backs on him.   They have brought him into their home and will begin the process of adoption.  Very few people can handle parenting 8 children but when you consider that 4 of the eight have been victims of severe abuse and 2 of their own children have had health issues of their own.  I know for a fact that the financial toll has been staggering from doctor appointments, therapy, medications, diapers for 2, etc.  They both work very hard and have never doubted the call of God on their lives to do this.  I would love to raise money to help with their adoption costs, childcare, clothes, medical needs, diapers, baby equipment, etc.  This family is absolutely unbelievable in what they have done in the lives of these children.  Would you help me and contribute any amount to help ease some of the financial burdens that accompany their incredible sacrifice.    I know they would be so grateful.  I have started the campaign at $5000 but I would love to see it exceed that amount.  Thanks so much for anything you can do.  They truly are being the hands and feet of Jesus to these 4 precious children.
