For the past few years, Matt and I have been hoping to start a family. Within the past few months, we have really looked to God for guidance. After a great deal of prayer, we believe that God is leading us toward adoption.
We spent quite a bit of time researching agencies, attending orientations/conferences and interviewing Adoption Counselors. We have decided to work with Christian Family Care Agency. In addition to being a Christian organization, they are located in Phoenix which makes it a lot more convenient for us.
Our first appointment with our Adoption Counselor, Sharon, was today. We both really like her, and are excited that she will be taking us through this process. We begin our adoption education classes in two weeks, and have about 100 pages of information to complete. Totally worth it all!!
We would ask for prayers as we begin this exciting process. I'll make sure to keep everyone updated as to how things are going.

Thanks for the blog and for keeping us all updated! You guys will be fantastic parents, and you're in my prayers. I'm glad the process is going well so far.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for you! Be sure to keep Matt away from middle schoolers so he doesn't get another head injury (that might hurt your status). All joking aside, this is a great journey to embark on. I have tons of literature on adoption if you want some resources (it's the topic of my dissertation).
