A letter to the birth parents
Dear Birth Parents,
We want you to know that this journey is just as much yours as it is ours, and we deeply admire the strength, love, and selflessness behind the difficult decisions you are facing. We can only imagine how much courage this takes, and we hold so much respect and compassion for you.
If we are blessed with the opportunity to welcome a child into our family, we promise to provide a life filled with love, support, encouragemen, and lots of laughte. Our home and hearts are ready to embrace this new chapter and we will cherish every moment and blessing that comes with it.
Above all, we are praying gratitude for the opportunity to grow our family through adoption and for the incredible person at the center of this journe, you. God Bless!

Charlie
Culinary Sales
Charlie is basically the guy you call when you need a hand, and somehow he's already on the way before you can even ask. He will go the extra mile for anyone, especially family and friends, and he does it all with a huge heart and strong faith guiding him. In his downtime he can be found in the yard playing ball with the dogs or at the church volunteering for many different ministries.
Katie
Pastoral Care/faith formation assistant
Katie is the kind of friend you would hope for. She is loyal, caring, and always there when you need her. She has a special gift for connecting with children and has built lasting relationships with many families. Her heart is biggest when it comes to her husband, family, and fur babies. In down time, you can find her in the kitchen or curled up with a good book at home or at church helping with children's ministries.
Our Community
Our home is in a family-friendly neighborhood where walks are part of our daily routin. With schools and parks within walking distance, there's always something to do and plenty of opportunities for fun. Any adoptive child will grow up surrounded by cousins, family friends, and children from our diverse parish community. We have two dogs and a cat, our home is never short on laughter and adventure.
