About Us
Our innermost desire is to raise a family in joy, peace, love, and happiness and to raise children to be successful in life spiritually, educationally, and economically. Regarding our reasoning behind our adoption journey, we have endeavored to have children naturally of our own for over 17 years which is the same length of our marriage. Due to infertility, we have gone through nine failed In Vitro Fertilizations; countless attempts through other procedures to treat infertility; as well as continuing to try to conceive naturally. Though our journey has been arduous, we have kept the faith and our hopes high. We are grateful to God for leading us to Christian Adoption Alliance. We are so excited in becoming a blessing to you and your loving family in allowing us to raise your child. We are very grateful once again for you and we cannot thank you enough. You have become a key piece in our journey in raising a family.
I, Luciana, am Fun, loving, family-oriented, and a music-lover are some of the qualities that describe me. I am the youngest out of my four siblings. Math was my favorite subject in school. In High School, I was in the National Honors Society. In college, I graduated with my Bachelor of Science with a major in Business Finance in 2001. I am currently an Executive Director of a Nonprofit Organization that provides low-income individuals and families with housing with case management and supportive services. My hobbies are playing with my three doggie girls, listening to music, dancing, watching court shows, and going on outings with my family and Godchildren.
Firstly, being family oriented means everything to Errik. Out of his two sisters and him, he is the middle child and of Polish descent. Errik is Loving, Adventurous, a Goal Achiever, and Dependable.

Errik's TESTIMONY
I love the Lord. He saved me out of so many dark situations in my life. If it had not been for Father God on my side, I do not know where I would be. I am so thankful and grateful to the Lord for saving me. I received Christ in my life over 20 years ago. For my faith to continue to be strengthened, I currently attend Church services both in person and online.
Luciana's TESTIMONY
I absolutely love God. I realize that if Jesus had not saved me I would be lost without a Saviour. My relationship with Christ is my everything because He speaks to me and counsels me. He is my Comforter, my Peace, and my Provider. I am so grateful for the Lord and His love for me. What a wonderful God we serve. For He is awesome. To strengthen my faith, I attend Church services, read my bible, and pray everyday. I also witness to others about the goodness of Jesus. I'm an usher and also I was a Sunday school teacher for over 18 years teaching youth between the ages of 6 to 18. I am now a mentor to teens and witness to them about the goodness of Jesus and pray with them.

Vision For Raising A Child
Our vision in raising a child is firstly for the child to know Christ and to have a personal relationship with Him and to know that He loves them so much beyond any love in their life. Our vision is to raise a beautiful baby in teaching them how to pray, read their bible, and attend church service and involve them in church activities. Our vision for raising a beautiful baby in our home is for them to know and feel the love of Christ coming from us that we may instill Godly behavior and actions in our adoptive child's life. Our vision for our beautiful adopted baby is to know the Lord for themselves so that they can grow up into productive citizens in our society witnessing to others about the goodness of the Lord.
