Adoption is something we have carried in our hearts for a long time; even before being married.
Now, having spent time in prayer, conversation, and deep discernment, we believe God is calling us to open our hearts and home to a child in need of a family.
Many of you have asked us how you can help. Here are some ways that you can join us.
Prayer This is the most important way that you can help us! The adoption process is long and at times, challenging. Your prayerful accompaniment would mean so much to us.
Sharing Share our journey, and this page, with your family and friends.
Fundraising Adoption can total over $50,000. While we are making great sacrifices to self-fund our adoption, we may need help meeting some of the financial obligations along the way. We are grateful for any gift you feel led to make. (Donations through our Adopt Together site are tax deductible, and can only be used for adoption related expenses with the oversight of "Adopt Together")
Thank you for taking the time to join us on our journey. We are so grateful for each of you!
Love,
John, Mandie, Rosie & Matthias
Hi All!
I realize it's been a while since we posted an update.
We are still waiting for our baby. Our agency has 17 (?) families waiting, and I believe 8 or 9 babies that are due in the next few months, so we just don't know when we will get that call.
In the meantime, we have set up the nursery and continue to raise money for a final payment we will make once we are matched.
Thank you for your prayers and for waiting right alongside us!!
As soon as we hear something, YOU all will hear something.
With love,
John, Amanda, Rosie and Matthias
We are so excited to share that as of yesterday we are offiicially an ACTIVE waiting family! This means that we can be chosen at ANY TIME.
Please continue to keep us in prayer as we prepare to welcome our new child into our home! We will keep you all posted when we get the call, whenever that may be. It could be tomorrow, it could be in a few months. Only God knows :)
Please continue to share our fundraiser with anyone you think might be interested!
We are so grateful to all of you, and cannot believe we have finally reached this point in our journey!
Love,
John, Amanda, Rose & Matthias
We are almost at 25% of our fundraising goal!! 🙏
Thank you to everyone who has supported us and has been praying for us along this journey!
We have our next meeting October 20, and then we go ACTIVE! Sooo close.
Love,
The Khanjians😊
We wanted to let you all know that one of our adoption payments was made with strictly donations from Adopt Together! Thank you all for your support!
We have our next meeting on October 20, and then become an active family shortly thereafter. (Will post another update after that meeting).
Getting closer and closer to Baby Khanjian #3!
God is good :)
Love,
John, Mandie, Rosie & Matthias
We have officially handed in the LAST document needed for the home study. We began our home study in January and started with 50+ pages of homework that seemed like it would take forever to complete! As you can image, we are very excited and relieved to be done with this stage of the process.
Now..
~we wait for the home study report to be typed up by our social worker, so that we can move onto the next stage
~continue fundraising! We still have a ways to go, and every bit helps. Share this page with anyone you think may be interested! :-)
God Bless you all and thank you for being a part of our adoption journey!
Love,
John, Amanda, Rosie & Matthias
