Our Story
How thrilled we are to share this awesome experience with you! We are in the process of adopting an infant domestically (we prefer & have requested an african american or bi-racial girl).The name Zoe came from a series of events after years of praying for a LIFE movement over our nation...
David was in D.C. at "The Call", a day of prayer/fasting for our nation. Abbey & I were home & upon waking up that morning, I had a fleeting thought about a name we had talked about while puppy-shopping(Zoe)..."maybe God wants us to ADOPT a BABY & name HER Zoe"...I dismissed it as being VERY random (seeing as how adoption had not been on my mind AT ALL) & went about my day...
until tuning in to watch the D.C. event online...
a pastor was praying for God to touch people's hearts with the spirit of adoption. A mom was holding her adopted child on stage & he prayed that the meaning of her name (LIFE) resonate across this nation. You can guess what her name was?!?!...ZOE! I knew in my heart God was speaking & prayed,"Lord if this is you, confirm it through David". He called 2 hrs. later and said,"there's something to this adoption thing for us". We were amazed at what the Lord was doing in each of us so far apart! We continued to pray & talk with our family & pastor, and God continued to confirm. So here we are....and so she'll be....Zoe!
*(later we actually were connected through a friend-of-a-friend with the parents of Zoe that was on stage at The Call... CLICK HERE to read about their amazing adoption journey! They are in full-time ministry with the International House of Prayer,or IHOP, in Kansas City and have recently started The Zoe Adoption Foundation. We had a logo designed for our adoption fundraising & now have shared it with them to use in their agency. God is amazing like that!
