Our Story
                          
 When God told us to move forward with adoption, we never could've imagined the
  plan he had for us. After years of being in the process we were finally able to bring
  our son, Steeven Israel Christensen, home with us, only not the way we had
  imagined. After the earth quake in Haiti we desperately wondered if our son was
  alive. GLA did a wonderful job keeping us up to date on what was happening and
  did everything in their power, mostly with God's hand, to get Steeven to us where he
  was safe. Our family will never forget that day or the weeks that followed.

 Steeven has always been a boy that is full of life! He makes friends with nearly
  everyone he meets as he shows them the love God has put in his heart. He has
  struggled with a number of health issues since coming to us, but his fire does not go
  out, at least not for too long. Many people have told us that Steeven is blessed to
  have found our family, but we strongly believe that our entire family is blessed to
  have him join us. We thank God for his great plan for all our lives and are
  encouraged daily as we see it play out.

 Wade, Kristi, Jordyn, Abigail, Carter and Steeven Christensen
God is good!
