We are incredibly grateful that you have taken the time to learn about our lives. It is truly an honor to introduce ourselves, and we hope this gives you a small glimpse into who we are.

We are Beau and Erin, and we were both born and raised in Washington State. We have been married for almost 20 years and have desired to grow our family for more than 15 of those years. We met in high school at a summer Bible camp in 1998. We started dating later that summer and quickly realized we were meant to be together. After six years of dating and once Erin completed her bachelor’s degree, Beau proposed, and we were married on August 13, 2005.

From the very beginning of our relationship, we have wanted children but faced challenges conceiving. Our doctor informed us that it was unlikely for us to get pregnant without medical intervention. At that time, we were devastated; however, we strongly felt that the Lord was calling us to welcome a child into our home through adoption, and we found peace in that decision.

Both of us come from medium-sized families and grew up with siblings. We understand how special sibling relationships can be, and we believe that family is one of the most important aspects of life. In addition to our immediate family, we have an extended community of friends who are also very important to us.

In our home, we emphasize love and respect for one another, striving to demonstrate a love similar to that of God. We have always hoped and prayed for children. Adoption has been on our hearts for a long time, and we are very excited about the prospect of adding a child to our loving family.

If you choose us, know that you will always be an important part of your child's story, and your child will grow up knowing just how very loved they are and we would love for you to continue to be a part of their life as well if that is something you would like.

 

We are Tom and Abi! Thank you for taking the time to take a glance into our lives! We got married in May of 2015 and are still in love today. In a busy world, we make it a point to prioritize our marriage and family. God comes first, family second, and work comes third. We've known and planned on adopting since before getting married, and we continue to hope and pray that the Lord chooses to bring children into our home for us to love, teach, and raise. 

A quick snapshot of us: 

• We live in rural Iowa. 

• Bryan is a pastor of a Reformed Presbyterian Church.

• Olivia is a stay at home mom.

• We value: faith, joy, and love.

• In our home, kids are safe, wanted, guided, and deeply loved.

We're Bryan and Olivia.  We've been married for 16 years and are raising five very different kids in rural Iowa. Our home is full--sometimes loud, usually busy, and filled with: meals around the table, read-alouds, friends, church, outdoor adventures, family vacations, and plenty of enjoyment. Bryan is a pastor and Olivia stays home with the children.  With the older 4 in school she has lots of one on one time with our toddler. Our Christian faith is at the center of our family, and it shapes the way we try to love each other: telling the truth, apologizing when we get things wrong and working on heart change, forgiving quickly, and treating each person with kindness and respect. We realize that seeing five children may make you wonder whether another child could really receive individual attention in our family. We think that is an important question. Our five kids have taught us that children aren't interchangeable--they have completely different personalities, interests, strengths, struggles, and needs. Welcoming another child would not mean simply adding one more to the group.  It would mean getting to know a whole new personal and making room for their personality, their needs, their story, and their birth family. 

How we met:

Bryan is from Southern California, and Olivia grew up in Ohio. We met at a Christian student conference in Virginia while Bryan was serving in the Navy. What started as a long-distance relationship eventually became much more.  18 years later, we still genuinely enjoy spending time together, and protecting our friendship in the middle of raising a large family is important to us. 


Why Adoption: 

It's been a long-held desire since we were both kids. We are deeply grateful for the five children already in our home but we are pursuing adoption because we believe we still have room in our lives and our family to love another child well. 

Adoption can bring something beautiful, but it also begins with real loss for a child and birth family. We don't want to minimize that. If you decide parenting your child is best, we respect that.  If you decide adoption is best and choose our family please know that your baby will be safe, cared for, and deeply loved in a stable home with open hearts and open arms. We want your child to grow up knowing the truth about their story. We want them to know that their life began with a mom who courageously and selflessly gave them life. 

Our faith deeply shapes our decision to adopt. In the Gospel, God welcomes those who were not His children and makes them His beloved children through Jesus. We see adoption as a reflection of that love. 

 

Thank you for taking the time to learn about us. We are Rony and Kcristell, and we are honored to share a little about our lives.

We met in 2013 through our church's young adults ministry and were married in 2019. Our faith in Jesus is the foundation of our marriage and our greatest hope is to build our family through adoption.

Adoption has always been close to our hearts. Rony was adopted as a child, so we understand the beauty of adoption in a personal way. We are committed to raising a child who always knows their story and understands that both their birth family and ours deeply love them.

We are proud of our Hispanic heritage. Kcristell's family is from Honduras, and Rony's family is from Nicaragua. We look forward to sharing our cultures through traditions, food, language, and family celebrations.

We love spending time outdoors, whether we're hiking, biking, sightseeing, camping, or working in our garden. We grow our own fruits and vegetables, enjoy baking together, and love opening our home to family and friends. Our two dogs, Olivia and Bruno, bring lots of fun and are ready to welcome a little one into the family.

Our prayer is to provide a home filled with faith, laughter, adventure, and unconditional love. Thank you for considering us and allowing us to be part of your story.

We’re Cassie and Jesse. We’ve been married for 8 years, and we’re a team in every sense of the word. We believe in showing up for the people we love, in doing what we say we’ll do, and in living with kindness and integrity. We’re people of our word - and we appreciate a good handshake.

Our home is full of warmth, laughter, and a little bit of organized chaos (Cassie’s specialty). Jesse is the kind of guy who can fix just about anything and make you laugh while doing it. He’s steady, thoughtful, and has a quiet strength that makes people feel safe. Cassie is the heart of our home - she’s nurturing, creative, and makes sure our house feels like home. 

We speak kid well. Whether it’s silly voices at bedtime, dance parties in the kitchen, or answering the millionth “why?” of the day, we’re all in. We know how to have fun, and we believe childhood should be full of wonder, safety, and love.

If you choose us, your child will grow up knowing where they came from and how deeply they were loved from the very beginning. We’re open to staying connected in whatever way feels right to you—whether that’s through letters, photos, or visits. 

We are Sam and Casey and Julia! We have been blessed with the most amazing family and we can't wait to grow it even more. Sam and Casey have the same birthday (same day, same year!) and on our shared 30th birthday, we got the call to adopt and bring home our first daughter (Julia). That was the most amazing day of their lives but now we want nothing more than to adopt again to complete our family. We love each other, love our friends and family and love what the Lord is doing in our lives through adoption.

Hey there! We are Cole and Danielle, a loving couple in Minnesota eager to grow our family through adoption. We have loved a good adventure ever since we met at a young age! We love all things Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Star Wars, or a great day watching a live sporting event! We look forward to sharing these with a child!

We met when we were 14, working at a local scout summer camp. Our friendship grew over about 7 years before we started dating, and after roughly 2 years together, Cole popped the question on Christmas 2017. Finding our person showed us how much we wanted to become loving parents.

In our free time, we enjoy many outdoor activities, including hikes, canoeing, grilling out, and camping. We also enjoy family nights in. Walking our pup Ellie to the local 1950s-themed ice cream shop is one of our favorite summer activities. We also enjoy trying out different places for painting or other crafting classes. We're often found at volunteer events and community groups. One highlight from our volunteering was taking a group of community kids from the scout troop on a few backpacking trips. They were memorable, fun trips. As a family, we love traveling, too. A couple of times a month, we enjoy trying different local restaurants for family/date night and going to our friends' house for game nights.

Hi mommas! We are Sean and Jeanette, high school sweethearts who have been married since 2010 and live in Texas with our 3 children and 2 sweet doggies. We are a Christian family and have always been interested in adoption but have not been able to adopt until recently. We are praying for each of you and are hoping that we can provide a great home for a baby girl who can be a beloved daughter and sister. We are working with an agency that can do adoptions in Texas or Arizona and will provide no cost counseling to you if we match. 

If you want to learn more about us, here is a link to a youtube video with our adoption book. We are so eager to learn more about you and see if we would be a good fit for you and your precious baby!
