A little about the Every Child Has A Dream team:
"Adoption was always something we, Luke & Anna, had a passion for and something we knew we wanted to do. After our daughter was born, we felt God leading us to get involved in the foster care system. Our life has changed dramatically as we've gotten the privilege to witness first hand, the amazing power of God's healing using an imperfect, but Christ-empowered family in the life of one of His precious, hurting children. We have been blessed with six of the most wonderful children, three born to us and three through the gift of foster care turned adoption. We recognize none of this would have been possible without the grace and faithfulness of the amazing God we serve. All Glory to His Name!
God has given us a desire to minister to families that are adopting, both internationally and domestically, through both prayer and financial gifts. We started Every Child Has a Dream as a way to get others involved in the privilege of defending the orphan and helping to place these beautiful children into loving homes. We believe that funding adoption should never be what keeps a child waiting for a family and a home. Not everybody may be able to adopt, but we can all answer the call to care for the fatherless by prayer, and many of us by financial giving as well. By donating to Every Child Has A Dream, you are helping to bring a precious child into a home where they are safe, loved, cared for, wanted, cherished, and most importantly, pointed toward Jesus Christ!"

"It was late one night as a newlywed couple when Jason told me (Deborah), "I'd love to adopt someday." "Really?" I asked. It was never something I had thought much about and wasn't sure it was for us. But a couple years later when God hadn't given us a biological child like we had hoped, I stumbled across an ad in a paper that read, "Share your heart, become a foster parent." I had just been praying that morning about our situation and that ad kept coming back to me. What could it hurt to get a little information? After praying about it, we decided we'd be a family for some children who needed one while we were waiting on God to give us one of our own. Little did we know our very first placement would be the start of our little family. How thankful we are we said YES to that phone call. We had originally told them no, that we were going to wait a few more months before taking a placement. But God had a better plan for us that we had for ourselves and we're so glad! It didn't take long for the four us to feel like a family! A year and a half later, God gave us a biological son and we're amazed how God gives us love for our children no matter how they come into our family. We praised the Lord when the adoption finalized a little over 2 years after the children came. We were officially a family of five!
Through our journey, God has given us a passion for adoption and a burden for the many, many children who need a family. When Luke and Anna asked us to be part of Every Child Has A Dream, we were so honored! What a privilege to help Christian families afford adoption! May all glory be HIS alone!"
