How much does it cost?

That's the biggest question we get.  I don't think some people want to ask, but I know everyone is wondering...

About $20-25k.

That's a lot of money.

A car.

A down payment on a house.

A child.

"Adoption is the highest privilege that the Gospel offers-higher even than justification.  To be right with God the judge is a great thing, but to be loved and care for by God the Father is greater." J.I. Packer

It says in James 1:27 that "Religion that God accepts as pure and faultless is this, to look upon oprhans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."

Bob and I know we've been called for an extraordinary purpose.  We are aware of the challenge we've been presented with and will do everything we can to do our part, while trusting in Him for the rest.  It can overwhelm us at times, how will we get to that number, we are only about 5% there.  But, that's 5%, and growing each day. 

So we keep moving forward, getting creative, and say no to eating out :)
