Meet Lily & Hope

Because of the sensitive nature of our adoptions, I have not been able to share details of what has yet been one of the greatest rescue stories of our lives. A story that is now becoming our pilgrimage.

But, today, justice and mercy kissed, and we saw the strong arm of the fatherless on behalf of our no-longer-fatherless.

Today, in Lily’s words, “the judge said yes.”

As the weeks unfold, I can’t wait to tell the story. Their stories. My story. His story.

In the meantime, here’s a sneak peak at the two latest ones who have stolen our hearts. Please praise God with us for moving through the impossible to make them Hagertys. We are crazy about them.

Sara Hagerty

Sara and her husband, Nate, have been married for nine years and brought home their two children from Ethiopia last year. Led by God, they started the adoption process again–for two more from Uganda. They have a heart for prayer and to see people touched by the love of Jesus. What started as a blog chronicling the ups and downs of adoption has become a passion for Sara. You can read more of her musings on orphans, walking with God through pain and perplexity . . . and spinach juice at Every Bitter Thing Is Sweet.

    O.k. That was beautiful. I was bawling for a full 8 minutes. 11 seconds. What an incredible story!! Especially the part about Hope’s name and the pillow case. Such a great testament to the goodness of Our God! I’ll be sharing this on my facebook. Too good, not to share.

    Many Blessings & Congratulations!!
