Help make our trio a family of four!

Donation protected
Call us crazy, but after two failed attempts, we are at it again.  In 2012 we felt the pull to adopt.  A few months after starting the process on an adoption from Ethiopia, our agency went bankrupt, causing us to start over with a new agency.  Then in 2015 the nation of Ethiopia closed their doors completely to adoption, causing us to lose all the progress we had invested; not once, but twice.  In the midst of all this we were greatly blessed with the birth of our son Elisha in 2013, and are once again ready to adopt! 

This time, after prayer and much discussion, we are praying for a domestic, infant adoption, the total cost of which is around $25,000-$30,000.  While we feel that funds will be available for a majority of this cost through adoption grants, we do need around $3,500 to get off the ground with application fees, and a home study before we can start applying for grants. 

We ask that you prayerfully consider joining us to help get this process moving forward.  We understand that things are tight for many, but even if you can’t give yourself, you can still join us by sharing this page with everyone you know.  The more people who know our need, the more likely we are to reach our goal. 

We are so grateful for all our friends who choose to join us on this journey of making a foursome out of this family of three!
