Our lives are forever changed because Lisa’s grandfather was placed for adoption with her great grandparents. This adoption has now blessed many generations. 

As we have struggled with infertility over the last 23 years, it has led us to have increased faith in God, and strive for a healthy lifestyle including learning about nutrition, implementing active family pursuits, spending time traveling and in nature. 

Despite the challenges of infertility, we have felt it is a miracle that we have been gifted with 7 biological children. We love our large family, but we do not feel it is complete. 

.

The truth is, the journey of adoption is something that has been engraved in our bones. It feels like a literal part of who we are. We are so blessed to be on this journey with you.

The Lord has continued to show us the path he designed for our family, and all roads led us right here. 

We want you to know adoption is not our Plan B. We whole-heartedly believe it has always been God's Plan A.

We spent several years as foster parents and had the opportunity to love children from all backgrounds. Learning about the biological parents of these sweet little ones increased our compassion for the challenges these parents faced. 

This compassion helps us strive to make Jesus the center of our lives. Our goal for all of our children is to not only equip them with the tools that they need to step into their eternal missions, but to also have the faith, wisdom, and character to lean on God the whole way through

We admire your courage and consider being a part of your journey a great honor.

We are open to an immediate adoptive placement of a baby or a six-month, temporary placement of a child while the parents consider options.

With love, 

Lisa and John
