Journey To Jessica: Signing Our Referral Acceptance

Here we are signing the official document!

One step closer to bringing our girl home!!

Eternal Family Program

Aug 2014 UPDATE -- We are so thrilled to be able to share that God has provided every penny we need for the adoption. I kid you not, every penny. When we began this process, we were not even sure if we could afford the first several hundred dollars for the application. But, God is faithful!! He provides!! And, we are sorry that we ever doubted. And, so very happy that we can share that HE took care of everything at just the right time every single step of the journey!! God used so many people to encourage and support us along the way. We are so thankful for those who gave so generously of their time and resources. Thank you and we know that God will bless you for helping to take care of one of His precious babes!
