meet the families
Every family’s adoption story is different.
And every family faces different challenges or barriers along the way. As our founders like to say, the adoption journey is “gloriously hard”.
Through Adoption Aid grants, Show Hope helps to break down one barrier in particular—the financial barrier. As you help make these grants possible through your giving, you can also follow the stories of a few of the families impacted and come alongside them in prayer.
Our Families
The Sapps
Kristen and Cameron Sapp have hoped since before they were married to grow their family through adoption. Cameron has a sibling who came home through adoption and has seen the importance of adoption on a personal level. Kristen has known since a high school mission trip that she desired to adopt. Through their adoption journey, they are learning to let go of their perceived control and trust God. Today, with the help of a Show Hope Adoption Aid grant, the Sapps are waiting to welcome a child home from Ghana.
The Holladays
Laura and Benjamin Holladay both desired to adopt before they had even started dating. As two teachers working in Title 1 schools, Laura and Benjamin expected to adopt locally but were drawn to adopt from India. They brought their daughter home from India almost three years ago and are following God’s call to return to India for a second adoption with the help of a Show Hope Adoption Aid grant.
The Moores
God first impressed the desire to adopt on Christine Moore’s heart when she was a teenager. It wasn’t until after they were married that her husband, Will, felt God tell him the same thing. Today, with the help of a Show Hope Adoption Aid grant, the Moores are in the process of adopting a child from Peru. As they wait, God is teaching Christine and Will that they are enough because he loves them, and he will continue leading them through this journey.
