We adopted Mattie Gail from Jiangxi, China. Our agency was CCAI. We were logged in (LID),November 17, 2005; our Date of Referral (DOR) was August 3rd, 2007; we became a family September 9, 2007.
We believe that Heaven is a free gift and we cannot earn or deserve it. We have messed up, everyone messes up, and none of us are doing everything we're supposed to all the time. Even though we fall short, God is merciful and He loves us and sent his only Son Jesus, here to earth. Jesus died on the cross and rose from the dead on the 3rd day, to pay the penalty for our sins and purchased a place in heaven for us. We believe anyone can receive the free gift of eternal life by trusting in Jesus Christ.
