Domestic Adoption




Thousands of people who have adopted children through Bethany have found that adoption is a positive way to build a family. For Christians struggling with infertility or who want to enlarge their family circle, adoption is not second best. It is simply one way that God in His wisdom can choose for us to be parents.

Whether one becomes a parent biologically or through adoption, the fact is that children are not a right - they are a gift from God. Recognizing that adoption involves the emotions and expectations of many people, Bethany’s professional staff balance the needs of birthparents who desire to play an active role in choosing their child’s adoptive parents, while helping adoptive parents understand and prepare for adoption. Through the entire process we work to achieve our mutual goal of a secure placement in the best interest of the child.

Women facing unplanned pregnancies come to Bethany seeking Christian families for their children, if you would like more information about how you can be an adoptive parent, please fill out our contact form and ask to receive our information packet.



Did you know that today many healthy African-American infants need permanent adoptive families? The need for African-American adoptive homes has never been greater. Pregnant women come to Bethany seeking a better life for their baby. They may desire a two parent, Christian family or a well established, Christian, single parent. For a woman facing an unplanned pregnancy, adoption is a positive alternative to abortion or parenting before she is ready.

Some people adopt to build a family. Some adoptive parents are childless, while others simply want more children. Many people adopt because they can provide the love and nurturing a child seeks. If you have the desire to adopt an infant, please consider reaching out to a child who needs your love.
