Give a child the opportunity for a family and a future.
Each child is a precious gift from God.
What is infant adoption?
Infant adoption is the adoption of a newborn or very young child. Families adopt infants for many reasons. Perhaps you feel called to provide a loving home to a child in need. Maybe you want to grow your family through adoption. Many families see adoption as a beautiful reflection of the way God loves all His children.
Expectant parents make an adoption plan for their unborn child because they feel that they are not able to parent at this time and that adoption is the very best choice for their child. Bethany works with both adoptive and expectant parents to create a plan that works best for everyone.
Would you like to welcome a newborn into your home? You can give a child hope and a future. For more information, see our Adoption Guide.
