Sarah Brown hasn't added a story.
Just two years ago my heart broke for children needing a new home. Children that are waiting and ready to be adopted but aren't because there isn't an adoptive family waiting specifically for them. These kids are typically harder to place for a variety of reasons but it's usually because of their age or special needs. Many kids need a new family and I found myself, once again, praying about and longing to bring another child home.
Just a few weeks after I started looking, Ian found his way into my heart. Just like with Daniel, there was an instant love via a single picture. Just like Daniel, Ian needs a new home ASAP. And just like Daniel, I won't get to meet or talk to him until he becomes my son.
I know very clearly that God has called me to adopt. I feel so fortunate to be able to add to our little family by adopting Ian. I will be traveling across the United States with a few suitcases to bring Ian and his current belongings home to Oregon.
That brings me to the fundraiser! Here is how it works: The name of each person who donates any amount will be written (tagged) in black ink on a suitcase for Ian...a tangible, visual keepsake for him to have of all the people who have loved and prayed for him even before they knew him. In addition, it will be a practical way for us to bring a few of his current belongings to his new home.
Donations can be made on this website, via Paypal, in the mail, or in person.
Thank you for helping us bring our boy home!
Love,
Sarah and big brother Daniel
