About Us!
- Elizabeth and Allan Pack
- We are Elizabeth and Allan Pack and have been married 8 years. In November 2011 we took that leap of faith and applied to adopt a child from Ethiopia. This blog is all about our journey from start to finish. We patiently waited for 5 years to bring our child home and as of April 2016 we felt God was leading us to withdraw from the program and help another family bring home their child.

A bump in the road
Happy New Year everyone! :o) I'm looking forward to what God has planned for us this year! We have hit a bump in the road to adoption but we aren't going to let this get us down. Allan lost his job on Friday morning, but we are trusting that God has something better planned for him. I have to admit it wasn't easy hearing this news; he loved his job, had great insurance, great pay, lots of vacation time, etc.. But, I just have to say GOD IS AWESOME! He has given us both a peace about this and honestly it has encouraged us to continue moving forward with the adoption. We are not going to let this small bump in the road discourage us from our dream of bringing home our child and starting our family! We continue to downsize anything we can to save as much money as possible, but we still desperately need financial help. We were blessed with another donation yesterday and are so thankful!! Every dollar we get brings us one step closer to bringing home our child! We are keeping our heads up high and moving forward! :o)
