We praise God that you're here!
 

We rejoice in every family who answers God’s call to open their home to a child and live out the heart of James 1:27. 

Our team brings firsthand experience with international, domestic, and foster care adoption, offering practical guidance and Christ-centered encouragement every step of the way.

We would be honored to walk alongside you through every stage of the adoption process—from discerning how God may be calling your family to parent and which path of adoption may be the right fit, to choosing an agency, completing your home study, matching, travel, bringing your child home, and navigating the transition into family life.

Because we believe this work is a ministry entrusted to us by God, we will never charge families for our services.

We are here to answer the questions that may feel difficult to ask an agency or professional, offer honest insight into what you can expect, and share the practical wisdom we’ve gained through our own experiences. While every adoption story is unique, we understand many of the fears, challenges, and joys that come with welcoming a child into your family. We believe some of the greatest encouragement comes from someone who can simply say:

"We've been there, and God will be faithful with you too."

Please submit application and send questions to grants@byhishandfdn.org

Deadlines: September 15, December 15, March 15 & June 15
