Explore adoption

Jack and Ashley

Our journey to this point has been a long one. After several years of trying to get pregnant and failing month after month, we went to a fertility specialist to discuss our options. When we were told that IVF was our only chance to have a biological child, we were heartbroken. We both felt strongly that God wasn't calling us to try to make a human being in a science lab. In the days following that doctor's appointment, all we could think about was adoption. All we could think about was providing a home and a family and more love than we knew possible to a child that God brought into this world His way. We knew that this is where God had been leading us over the past few years. We both believe that God has a plan for all of us, and we believe that God doesn't make mistakes. Life certainly hasn't gone the way we expected, but we trust that God has a reason for it. We trust that God has a reason for all that He is doing in your life. We are so thankful for the life that is growing within you. We are thankful that God has chosen you to be a part of the miracle of bringing a child into the world. We are sure that your journey has been stressful and scary. But we pray daily that you are reminded of how much God loves you. He made you for amazing things, and He loves you SO much. We would love the chance to meet you and get to know you and let you get to know us more. Jack and Ashley

We believe we have been adopted into God's family and we want to reflect the same love that God has shown to us. We are not a perfect family, but God has surrounded us with His love and faithfulness! Our hearts are eager to do the same. Our desire is to not only welcome a child into our family but to have an open relationship with you​ if that is your desire as well. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us! If you decide to make an adoption plan and choose us, we would respect your comfort level with an open relationship. We would love to figure out together what the specifics could look like, but regardless, your child would know the great love you have for him/her! We pray for clarity in your decision and for His peace to overwhelm you.

Thank you so much for taking the time to get to know us. We hope this introduction gives you some insight into who we are, what we do, and how deeply we love. We are grateful that we are being considered as adoptive parents and are excited at the possibility of being a part of you and your child’s life. Our community, friends, and family embrace adoption and are extremely supportive of our decision to take this path that God has provided.

We want to commend you on the courage you have to go on this journey. We know it is not easy and we admire the bravery you possess. A decision like this must come from the deepest form of love and we stand humbled to know that we are being considered for this opportunity.

Thank you for taking your time to get to know us a bit. While we don't know your journey, we want you to know that you are in our prayers. We hope you feel those prayers as you make brave decisions for you and yours. We have had a hard journey with many heart-breaking miscarriages that led us to making this book. Our faith in God and deep desire to share our love with a child have kept us going. Faith and family come first in our lives. We hope to give a child many diverse and fun opportunities as they grow and learn. Your child would be surrounded by never-ending love and support in this family.

James and Jaime

Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. We're excited for you to learn more about us and are thrilled to become adoptive parents. We admire your compassion for your child and your courage to consider adoption. We cannot begin to imagine the emotions you are feeling during this time and hope that you have the support you need as you plan the future for you and your child. Our prayer for you is that you can feel God's love through this journey and your choices. Although we haven't met yet, we have been praying for you and your pregnancy. We pray that you would feel God's loving arms around you as he comforts and guides you during this time.

Josh and Lyndsay

Welcome to the story of our lives. We met in 2006 going to a friends college basketball game and, as normal as that sounds, it was far from it! Josh has never played the game in his life and our mutual friend (Lyndsay's best friend who set this all up) ditched us before we even left. It was a blind date to remember and we have been in love ever since. We married in 2010, moved across the state, have bought a house or two, got a dog, a cat, grown our careers, and made some life long friends, and started planning for the day we would have children. After almost five years of trying to conceive that day still has not come. So, we are looking to adoption to grow our family.

Andrew and Kelsey

Hello! We are so excited to share our story with you. We feel honored that you have even opened our profile. We hope you enjoy getting a glimpse into our world. Life has had twists, turns, ups and downs throughout the years, but God has been there at the center, making this awesome thing we call our story come to life. However, the question we thought we would answer first is why we choose adoption. After our wedding, we took a year as just the two of us and then decided we would work toward parenthood. We began trying in fall of 2011. Our story began with 2 years of infertility and another year of infant loss. With 3 babies in heaven, we were unsure if we would be earthly parents. However, March 2015, our son Fisher was born. He was healthy and perfect...but Kelsey's pregnancy and delivery were neither. His brother Hamilton followed 16 months later. Before Hamilton came along, we were not sure if we would walk this pregnancy road again, but God had different plans. We are so thankful for our sweet Hamilton, but that pregnancy was also physically and emotionally hard with another rough delivery. We have always wanted to explore expanding our family through adoption and just didn't know when that would be. For Kelsey, having two adopted sisters, the seed to adopt was planted in her childhood. Drew knew this was a desire for Kelsey, and as the years of infertility and infant loss went by, it was Drew who encouraged our first step, as a couple, toward adoption. The Lord has made it fully aware to us that His timing is now. So, here we are. We thank you so much for the courage it takes to even look at these profiles. Thank you for letting us into your world, even if its only as you read through our story. Thank you for considering adoption for your child and taking the time to look at our profile and get to know us. We want you to know that we would welcome your baby girl into our home with excitement, and open arms and hearts full of love. We can't wait to get to know you as we walk through this journey together. We consider it an honor to be considered to be your child's forever family. We have been blessed to be chosen to parent these children, and we consider it a huge responsibility and honor to be used as an instrument in the hands of God to shape the hearts of our kids. We pray that as they grow older, they will desire to know Christ as their personal Savior. We are ready and prepared to welcome your baby girl into our home. Our boys ask daily about their baby sister! Know you are already so precious to us and we are praying for you and your treasured baby girl daily. We can't wait to meet you!

Josh and Jessi

Opposites attract. That is how the saying goes, and it is certainly our story. Jessica was born in Illinois and grew up in South St. Louis and Joshua was born and raised in North St. Louis. Jessica was athletic, Josh was a computer geek. Jessica goes with her heart, Josh has to think things through. Josh has five siblings, Jessica just one. But in their case, opposites have made a unique, well-balanced family. They met in High School and attended the same church for years. Josh finally asked Jessica out when she was 20, and he was 22. They quickly fell in love, and have been married for the past 10 years, making countless memories along the way. They've traveled to Jamaica twice, Japan once, and many places throughout the US. Every other year they take a family vacation with Jessica's family. They absolutely love exploring new places together and spending time with their families, both of which are very close. They were always looking forward to having a large family, and knew that adoption would be a part of it, as it has always been a part of their families growing up. After waiting many years for God’s plan to start their family, he has, as he usually does in his timing, led them to this journey. We thank you so much for taking the time to learn about our family and considering taking part in God's plan for our family!

David and Tiffany

We have dreamed of growing our family for 10 years now and we know that adoption can make that dream come true. We understand that the decision to choose adoption is not an easy one and truly admire the strength it takes in doing so. We promise that any child we adopt into our family is truly like our own. If we can change the life of at least one child by sharing our love, this journey we make is truly worth it. Although this has been a difficult journey, we know it will lead to a beautiful destination. "A mother's love for her child is like no other love. To be able to put that feeling aside because you want the best for your child is the most unselfish thing I know."
