We Gave Both Hands

ONE FOR THE WIDOW - ONE FOR THE ORPHAN

When we started our adoption journey, we had no idea how we were going to finance our adoption, but we knew the Lord was calling us to adopt. It was a huge leap of faith for us to surrender our financial worries to the Lord and trust that He would provide for us. At every stage of our adoption process, He has provided what we needed.

One of the ways he provided for us, was through the organization Both Hands. They are a non-profit that serves both orphans and widows. When we learned about the project, we knew immediately it was something we wanted to do, not only to raise funds for our adoption, but to serve a widow!

What an incredible concept!

We were blessed by so many friends and family who helped us with our Both Hands project and sponsored us.

On our project day, we had perfect weather and a wonderful group of friends eager to serve. We were able to accomplish many tasks, including painting the deck, pressure washing, planting flowers, cleaning, installing a gutter, etc.

We were blessed to serve a widow in our community and were about to raise just over $30,000 for our adoption.

Praise the Lord!

We are so thankful for the opportunity to have completed a Both Hands project, and so very grateful to our family and friends who supported us.
