Forever Hope

Just wanted to share something with all of you in the adoption world.

The Kratzer family was along on our journey to Robbie and they adopted a beautiful little girl they call Madelyn. We were truely blessed to share our journey with family. Amy has now started a wonderful support for adoptive families called Forever Hope:


Forever Hope is a Christian adoption support ministry. Our vision is to carry out God’s care for orphans by coming alongside adoptive families with post adoption support. The mission of Forever Hope is that adoptive families should never walk alone, especially when beginning life as a new family.
Forever Hope seeks to provide adoptive families 1) personal care and support  2) connection to valuable resources 3) a network of supportive relationships.
We understand that many adoptive families begin their life together as a new family feeling alone, stressed, and inadequate.  The first months of adoption can bring stress to children, marriages, and extended family relationships.  From financial burdens to unforeseen challenges, as the adrenaline of pre-adoption wears off, Forever Hope desires to come along side and minister to adoptive families.

I hope you will visit their site today:
