As an Orthodox family, our faith guides us in all we do. Recently, we felt called to expand our family through adoption from Bulgaria. Our aim: to provide a loving home while preserving our child's Bulgarian roots and Orthodox faith.

To make this dream a reality, we turned to our community for support, starting a GoFundMe page with our spiritual Father's blessing. The response was overwhelming, affirming the power of compassion.

Now, amidst paperwork and preparations, we're grateful for every donation, prayer, and word of encouragement. We promise to keep you updated on our journey. Together, we're not just building families, but futures filled with love and hope.

With heartfelt thanks,
