Judith and Randell have been married for 12 years and have a 9 year old daughter.

Randell grew up in Texas, and after graduating from college he moved to California.  Judith is originally from Cuba and grew up in Southern California.  Randell and Judith were introduced to each other on a blind date that was set-up by family members, and soon after they were married.   Both were blessed to have been raised by wonderful Christian parents who instilled a love for God in them. 

After a couple of years of trying to have a baby, their beautiful daughter was born, and they moved back to Texas to raise their family.  It was always their desire to add another member to their family, and for several years they have been praying about adoption.  Recently they had been praying to surrender to God's will in their lives.   God's call for them to add this precious little one to their family was loud and clear, and immediately they began to pray for guidance.  Grady will be a true gift to their family, and they are very hopeful and excited to bring Grady home soon.   Big sister is also very excited!

Grant and Bobbie have always known that they would grow their family through adoption – and after nineteen years together they are very excited to become first-time parents by adopting Robert from an Eastern European orphanage.  They are eager to bring Robert home to the U.S., where he will benefit from the medical resources available and a loving and dedicated family (as well as a family that has experience with orthopedic concerns since Bobbie has spina bifida).  Grant and Bobbie had planned on waiting just a little longer to adopt, until the time was “just right” – or at least until Bobbie had completed nursing school.  But God had another plan! 

Recently they learned about Reece’s Rainbow from a friend when she gave them a brochure at their church’s annual adoption conference. And after many hours spent contemplating lots of crucial questions, there was one question that stuck out above the rest: How could they let a little one spend the rest of his life in a mental institution? (Children with disabilities are transferred from their orphanage to a mental institution at the age of four.)  Can you imagine a four-year-old’s first night, all alone, in a mental institution?

So after a few other twists and turns in the road, Bobbie and Grant decided to start the whirlwind of a journey to rescue Robert!  The Clarks are working hard – needing to raise close to $25,000 for the process just to get him home.  And they need your encouragement and support to help them get to Robert as soon as possible.  Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to Robert's adoption fund.

Grant and Bobbie would like to thank you for your help and for taking the time to read about Robert. But more importantly, they would like to ask that you take some time to read about the other children who need families – that family could be you, or someone you know!

Scott and Lisette Spencer have chosen to adopt little Lisette into their growing adoptive family.  Dad's baby brother has Down syndrome, so they have always had a special love for these children. 

The Spencers are strong Christians who have been married for 11 years.   After 5 years of infertility problems, they turned to adoption, but hit many roadblocks.  Four years later, they began serving as foster parents.   They went from 0-3 children in only 2 weeks time!  They have two precious little boys, and their littlest one Jacob, had Down syndrome.   Regrettably, he passed away shortly after he turned one.  :( 

When they saw Lisettes face, they knew she was the one.   They are at great peace with their decision to adopt Lisette, and to honor Jacob in such a beautiful way. This is their first international adoption. Won't you help the Spencers bring baby Lisette home from Eastern Europe?
