Summary

SummaryI’m Kay, and from a young age God planted a yearning in my heart to open my home to children in need. Even as my husband and I served orphans through our NPO, I let excusesβ€”no car, no space, no fundsβ€”stand between me and obedience. But in 2014, at an adoption workshop in South Africa, God spoke to me: β€œWhen will you open your home?” That question shook me to my core. I argued with God in my garden, bargaining and delaying. Then my daughter confronted me at the dinner table about our lack of faith. In that moment, I knew I had to surrender fully. We visited Heartlands in Somerset West, and God surprised us: not one child, but four siblings, all needing a family. He showed us that obedience yields miracles. Today, with four precious children in our care, I trust that God’s call is always for our good. πŸ™πŸΎπŸ‘ΆπŸ½πŸ πŸ•Š

This is Kay. πŸ‘‹

From a young age, Kay had a desire to adopt. It stuck with her when she got married, but after having her own kids and starting an NPO, life got very busy and her desires took a backseat. After attending a conference and feeling God remind her of this desire, doubt and questions set in. Kay started processing it with God, and her family, and she began to surrender her doubts to God. Soon, the journey of adoption started.

Kay and her husband now have four children in their care, all at different stages of adoption. Her hope is that other families will hear God’s call and walk in obedience to Him.
