Leight Family Adoption
We have exciting news!! We are adopting from China!
In February of 2019 God confirmed in all of our hearts that He wanted our family to adopt. We were not sure of what path we would be taking, we were just sure that HE WAS CALLING US! So we began praying immediately.
There is a big story in between that we would LOVE to share with you! We are working on creating a video to share all of the details of what led us to adoption and how God has worked in the process. It has been a journey to say the least!
But for now we want to share that we have FOUND OUR LITTLE BOY!!
Finding him was nothing short of a miracle. God was in all of the details.
This sweet boy is in an orphanage in a large city in China. He was found when he was 6 months old and taken to the orphanage there. He has been there since.
He is 3 ½ years old and has the most precious little face. However his little face and eyes show that the first 3 ½ years of his life have been difficult. Our sweet boy has some special needs and his main one being that he has severe hearing loss in both ears. He is deaf. As far as we know, he has not been taught any form of sign language. As of now he has no form of communication. No way of hearing or communicating his feelings, wants or needs. This breaks our hearts! We are already praying now that Jesus whispers to his heart that he is LOVED. He may not know the word but we pray he FEELS it.
We are eager to learn sign language and to teach him as soon as possible. We have A LOT to learn and do to prepare for him to come home. We trust and believe that God will give us all that we need. We understand that the road ahead will not be easy BUT GOD will be with us every step of the way. He has proven over and over His faithfulness and that He never leaves us or forsakes us.
As many of you know, International adoption is extremely expensive! It can cost anywhere between $35,000- $40,000. This does not include the costs for his medical needs and possible surgery when he comes home. By the GRACE OF GOD we have already been able to pay $8500!! Our daughters have been doing some fundraisers and we plan to do some as well as things start opening up again for us.
We have also created this GoFund me account in hopes to get our story out in order to raise the funds needed so that we can bring this precious boy HOME and allow him to feel the love of a Daddy & Mommy and siblings…a FAMILY to call his own!!
Would you pray and consider helping us bring him home? No gift is too small. If you are not able to help in that way, we need and appreciate your prayers for us in this journey and especially for him while he waits for us!
We would also be so grateful if you shared this to help get the word out! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!
Love,
Rob, Stephanie, Grace, Ella & Jude
