Steeves Adoption Volume 2
Donation protected
The Steeves are adopting again!
We are delighted to be adding more children to our family! Two years ago we adopted siblings, 3 beautiful orphans from Ukraine. We have been praying about this for some time and we feel the time for this next adoption to happen is now. Imagine making an eternal difference in the lives of more children. There will be many updates along the way and we plan on sharing each and every experience with you all. We know that God has placed each and every one of you in our lives and we are so blessed to have you all as our friends and family.
