Erik and Julianne
Our story began on the internet. Yes, we met online! From the very start we both shared the same vision of marriage and family. We were hoping to start a family soon after marrying, however, that dream has yet to be realized. We've been trying to have a family of our own for the past few years. We were advised to see an infertility specialist and we consulted with one, however, we both decided we wanted to adopt instead. Our parents are supportive of our decision and were thrilled when they heard we were planning to adopt. They are already planning on helping us buy baby clothes, toys and a crib when the time comes.

Dear Expectant Mom, Your journey has been unique and, we are sure, very difficult. We hope to give you a complete peace about your decision to place your child for adoption. We have adoption in our lives and personally know how wonderful it is. We have complications with pregnancy but have been wanting to adopt since even before we were married. We have family members who were adopted, and we have several friends and neighbors who have adopted. We want you to know that we will provide a loving, nurturing, and joyful home if you decide to choose us. If you do, please be assured that we will always think of you fondly and continue to pray for you. We are open to staying in touch with updates and pictures and can talk about more, if you are willing. We will provide the baby with a full life, and will give him or her every opportunity to pursue their dreams. We have our friends’, family’s, and community’s support to help us as our family grows. Dan and Katie

Josh and Valerie
Hello! We are Josh, Valerie, Parker, and Trent. Our crew of 4 is excited that you are curious about us. Community and family are important to us, and we are praying you would want us to become a part of yours. Josh and Val were married in 2007 with a desire to have a family with children. Adoption had been an early consideration as Val was in the midst of medical training and our pregnancies were difficult. After 2 biological children, we decided the best path for us to expand our family was adoption. We hope by looking through our profile, you get a sense of our family values: kindness, joy, and humor. In joining our family, our prayer is that you would feel an outpouring of God's love as you help us grow our family. We look forward to our journey with you. With love, Josh and Val

Paul and Melissa
Hello, Thank you for viewing our profile and considering us. We are Paul and Melissa and we live in Southeast Michigan. We have been married for 16 years. We met in high school at a basketball game and continued dating through college. We got married and bought our first home in 2005. We enjoyed activities such as, traveling, playing a co-ed softball and on a bowling league. We have always wanted kids. We welcomed our first daughter Samantha in 2012. She was the first grandchild on both sides of our families. We wanted another child and after experiencing infertility issues, we decided to explore adoption. Paul and his sister are both adopted and it opened up the conversation about what that journey looks like. We were excited and blessed to have Daniella become apart of our family through infant adoption in 2019. Both girls are absolutely wonderful and bring us so much happiness. They are each other's biggest fans and are excited to welcome another sibling. We wanted to expand our family through adoption again and prayed about this over the last year. We want to thank you for considering Adoption as a path for your child. We believe God will guide your heart to the best decision for you and for your child.

Dear Friend, Thank you for taking the time to learn about our family and for considering us as you make the difficult decision of who will parent your child. We have always known that our family would grow through adoption. We were blessed to bring Lillian home and feel so privileged that her birth mom chose us. We love being her parents. Lillian is now 5 years old and is eager to be a big sister! We know that God has called us to adopt again and can't wait to meet our next child. We can't imagine how difficult a decision this is for you. We pray that you would have the strength and courage you need through this process. We know that you want what is best for your child, and we pray that you will find us to be all that you hope and pray for your child. Joseph, Erica & Lillian

Jared and Melissa
Dear Expectant Parent(s), Thank you for taking a moment to read about our lives and family. Having come from large families we dreamed of having our home filled with the love and laughter of children. We always knew we wanted to be parents and began trying to start a family shortly after we were married. We struggled with infertility and through much prayer decided in 2014 to pursue adoption. A year and a half later we were blessed with the adoption of our son Jayden who brings such joy and happiness to our lives. We are grateful for the open adoption relationship we have with Jayden's birth mother and meet twice a year at Bethany. We welcome the opportunity to build a loving relationship with our next child's birth family, too. We admire and are humbled by the courage and strength that comes with choosing adoption for your baby. We pray that you find strength, courage, and peace in whatever decision you may make.
