Our Journey Starts New

November 2011

For about a year and a half we have been praying that God would bless us with a child. We never imagined having any trouble pursuing this dream, but after a year of seemingly getting no where, we decided to start pursuing infertility treatment. Though we have not been told we cannot have children, the odds are not in our favor. This has been a very difficult journey, which has led us to start the adoption process. Adoption is something we had talked about even before we were married. Our desire is to be parents and raise children to teach them about our Savior, Jesus Christ. At times we wonder if it would have been easier to be told we are unable to have kids so that we could have started the adoption process sooner, but we know God’s timing is perfect, as is His plan for us. We are in the beginning stages of the adoption, we have finished reading the manual, and have started the Adoptive Planning Questionnaire. Once the APQ is finished we will apply for our Home Study. From there we will start working on our profile to be shown to potential birth mothers. We are very excited to have the opportunity to be blessed with a child, and know as hard or as scary and tough the process might be in the end God's will, will be done and we hope we are able to glorify him in every way.

Video Profile

We are officially done filming for our video profile!!  We had a month to get together short footage about us and to do interviews.   The video equipment was sent back to American Adoptions and we are in a queue for the media company to edit our video profile.    We have been active for about a month and are being shown to potential birth mothers.  Please continue to pray as we are in a waiting state, please pray also for God's protection of the baby He has planned for us. Now we will be working on our next step of fund raising for our match budget.   We truly do appreciate all the prayers and support up to this point!
