Exciting news for our family :)
Since before we even met, we have both had hearts for adoption. As we have prayed about how the Lord would grow our family, we have waited with eager anticipation for the day that God said – NOW! Now is the time to adopt! Romans 8:14-16 tell us that those who have been led by the Holy Spirit have been adopted as children of God. We enter into a relationship in which He calls us His children, and we call Him our Father.
There is something so powerful with this truth that we were destined to be without our true
and perfect Father. Through Jesus Christ, we now have our Father. We feel that there is no greater picture of the gospel than adoption. Knowing that we get to be part of something so incredible is a truly overwhelming blessing. Just as we have been welcomed into God’s family, we will get to welcome someone into our family, forever!

God has said NOW for us, and we have begun moving forward in the adoption process! This is a wonderful opportunity for us to allow our friends and family to join our team and be part of this incredible journey. Joining our team is a wonderful way to show support and encouragement spiritually, financially and emotionally as we walk out the calling the Lord has placed on our hearts.
We have chosen to adopt domestically!! While we were dating, and Alisha was in Guatemala {Guatemala is closed for adoption to anyone outside native Guatemalans - or else we would have an entire house full already}, the Lord spoke to both of us on the same day about the needs of the children in the USA. Since that time, we have both felt very burdened for the children in the US in need of a forever home.
We will be blogging a lot about opportunities to join our team - but a BIG one is coming up this weekend! Please check out our blog as we will do our best to keep you informed each step of the way!
