We are in our third adoption, and so tonight we are having a fundraiser. Later this spring, we will likely have another fundraiser. We have been blessed with grants from beautiful, Godly people like those in Katelyn’s Fund and other organizations who have come along side us in support of this costly journey. Yes, adoption is expensive. As we have seen God provide → ...

We are finishing up our second adoption from China and hope to travel at the end of June. We brought our daughter home in February of 2014.

2015 comes to a close today and tomorrow, by God’s grace, we will begin 2016. My mind can’t help but reflect on the year that has gone by. The events that have taken place, the people I have encountered, the challenges faced, and the blessings experienced. It is so healthy and good to take time to reflect, to allow space for my heart to worship God and remember all He has done. → ...
The Jeremy & Sarah Hartson Family Children: Taylor 18; Jacob 13; Hope 9; Judah 7 Church: Faith CRC, Pella, IA We are the Hartson family. We first began thinking about adoption years ago when we had two children and had struggled to carry a baby to term.

Thinking about things that are constant and make me feel comfortable and other things that make me feel like a tight muscle being painfully stretched. Our family has just returned from a couple of months on the mission field in Thailand. We experienced a lot of this stretching as we were away from home during the holidays. Traditions and constants, like those we practice especially during this season, are...
Jason & Sheri Hansen Family Child: Cayson 2 ½ years Church: Living Water Community Church, Orange City, IA Our first adoption journey began in the summer of 2012. After struggling with fertility, we were so excited to start the process of adoption of our first child. We knew the initial cost of adoption was going to be a huge leap of faith. However, we both desired to have a family and felt God calling us to do so by way of domestic adoption....
My Pastor shared a sermon a week ago that really resonated with me in “the wait.” It was a wonderful reminder that the Lord is working even when we are sitting in silence. The wait is very hard … for all of us in our family. → ...
Hunter & Christina Baker Family Children: Benton 8; Philip 6; Bryan almost 4; Anna Michelle – due in July 2015 Church: First Baptist Church Dadeville, AL Seven years ago adoption was not in my vocabulary. I never grew up dreaming of adopting a child. I never knew anyone that adopted. Adoption never touched me in any way. I was officially an “adoption virgin.” Then one day adoption reached out and touched me for the first time. → ...
