2016 Video
Melissa and I encourage you to watch this six-minute video about our experience with and our heart for foster care.
Our family became a foster family in December of 2013. That means that kids have come to live with us for a time when their families are not able to safely care for them. We have always struggled to succinctly communicate the experience and motivation behind fostering. This video tells some of our story and does it very well.
Our friends, Molly Bellanco and Ben Riggs working through our former church, created this wonderful video from our family's story.

I do not post these things for our glory. Please, do not celebrate us. Join us in caring for the fatherless.
Fostering is one of many ways to get involved in Orphan Care. I'd encourage you to learn more about Prevention, Providing, Partnering, and Parenting for these kids in need.
Lastly, please know that if you want to learn more about our story, fostering, or orphan care in general, Melissa or I would love to talk with you. I'm open to speaking to your church, to your family, or just talking on the phone.
Thanks for your interest in our story. It is a small part of the story God is writing among all of us, and I look forward to seeing what He does next.
