Support Brad and Krystal's Adoption Journey!

Donation protected
If you have ever met Brad and Krystal, you know that family is the most important thing to them.  When they first began dating, Krystal could tell that Brad had a huge heart with a lot of love to give and Brad could tell that Krystal lives for events that bring her family all together.  They fell in love and got married on September 15th, 2019.  Before they even were married, they began to imagine their future together as parents and starting a family of their own.  Their 8-year age difference wasn’t lost on them and they decided to try starting a family soon after being married. 

After several months of trying and some failed infertility treatments, they were left with two options: more infertility treatments or adoption.  The idea of adoption started showing up in their lives wherever they looked.  They both could see the signs everywhere and, after some careful thought and prayer together, have decided to pursue adoption as a means of beginning their family!  They are excited, a little scared, but most importantly—ready to love and provide a home for a baby!  They are learning so much about this process as they go and are grateful for the support of all the family and friends in their lives.

Adopting a baby is no easy process.  Between applications, counseling classes, home visits, and waiting for that big life-changing phone call—Krystal and Brad have a long road ahead of them.  With this opportunity also comes a great financial cost.  This process is more expensive than most realize, averaging between $35,000-$40,000 per adoption.  They are saving and re-evaluating their own lives to put everything they have towards this and would greatly appreciate your support in getting the rest of the way there! 

Krystal and Brad were made for each other, to do life together, and to be parents to a precious little life.  They dream of the day when they can pass their love and life experience onto a child and have the chance to raise a family.  Please consider supporting them financially and, if unable to support with monetary donations, please support them through your prayers and well wishes as they start this journey together!
