Our Families:

We continue to keep up with Stephanie & Joseph, Jill & Charlie,  Brooke & Mathew, Brianna & Tyler, Jessica & Chris, Caryn & Sam, Abby & Josh, and Nicole & Eric. All of their babies are healthy and thriving! We ask for your continued prayers for Naomi & Zach who are in the process but are awaiting another match. Please keep them in your thoughts as they wait for another opportunity to grow their family.

We have an wonderful update to share from Kaylan & Jon who experienced a disrupted match last fall but thanks in part to Disruptive Hope were able to welcome their daughter Hannah in June. We are so happy they are now legally a family.

"It has been an exciting few months for us! Hannah’s adoption was officially finalized via Zoom on October 1st! As we reflect on our journey to finalization, we can see how the Lord had his hand on every single detail, great and small. Since the finalization, Hannah has grown so much! She is constantly moving and exploring the world around her. She is now able to giggle, roll over, & loves playing with her tongue! Hannah is truly the joy of our lives."

We'd also like to introduce you to someone new! Maggie & Kaleb welcomed a baby girl Millie in October after several disrupted matches and financial losses totaling over $65K. With your help, they were able to recoup some of what they'd lost and had the strength to try again. Please keep them on your heart as they await finalization.

"For years, we have prayed and dreamed of this moment. Through every season of waiting, God has been faithful — carrying our hearts and strengthening our hope. This journey has not been easy. There were valleys filled with heartache, longing, and tears. Today that story has led us to the most precious gift we could ever imagine: our sweet Millie. She is an answer to countless prayers, a testimony to God’s goodness, and the fulfillment of a promise we’ve held onto for so long. Our arms and our hearts are finally full. We are forever grateful for the blessing of being her parents and for the miracle of adoption that brought her into our lives. Millie James, you are loved beyond words and cherished beyond measure. We can’t wait to walk this journey of life with you, watching you grow and reminding you every single day just how deeply you are loved."

Our Future:

As we look toward what's next for Disruptive Hope, we're always looking for opportunities to share our story, the stories of these families, and find more adoptive families to help. We're learning about the best ways to do this as we go and would love any advice you have to share at disruptive.hope.fund@gmail.com. Thank you all for your continued love and support!

With Love -
