About this Fundraiser

Thanks for your time of visiting this page to hear our story. A story that teaches us individually and as a family more about Jesus and our call to follow. A story of adoption both as identity and as calling. No matter race, societal status, or gender, He adopts us into His family through Jesus' death and resurrection. We also feel called to adopt for our family because of our privileged experience to already be parents to three kiddos. As parents we are constantly learning more about the Father's heart and love for His children. That love isn't just for a few select people, it is for all who are willing to accept it. And that is the same truth we cling to with our family. Our love as parents is deep for our children, but it isn't limited to just our three biological children. It extends to the children who due to this broken world are left without the opportunity to experience a love that is unconditional.  We are deeply passionate to love the way we are loved.


Many of you already know we have been in the process of adopting a child from Ethiopia for over two years now! You have walked through the ups and downs with us and to that we are incredibly grateful. You may or may not know but from the time we have started the process Ethiopia has changed policies and suspended intercountry adoptions. Through this process we have been in constant prayer that God would place the right little kiddo into our family.


Through prayer and discernment and through a series of events God blessed us with a little girl who was matched with a family prior to the suspension.  The previous family was unable to complete the adoption process due to the unstable adoption laws in Ethiopia.  Because of the dynamics in Ethiopia and the complications families and agencies are experiencing we have incurred additional unforeseen costs to complete our adoption.  We have already invested a substantial amount to bring our sweet little girl "F" home, but are still in need of help. That is why we are humbling ourselves and asking for help. We are so excited to watch God continue to move in this journey in bringing our sweet little girl home! All donations made through the campaign are tax deductible as they are distributed through a 501C(3).


God did not call us to adopt because it would be easy or because it would not cost us. He called us to this to model His heart of redemption. Thanks for hearing our heart and supporting us spiritually, emotionally, and monetarily where possible. We hope that by inviting you into this process, you will see yourself as an invited part of the community we hope to build around our child as he grows up and our family as a whole.


Email us with questions as we would be more than happy to share our story in person.
