Until there are ZERO children in the foster care system, our job isn’t finished!

Please follow the link in my bio to take a next step towards serving kids in need in Orange County.

It’s not about being perfect, it’s about being available 🙏🏻 There is SO much that God can do through a simple “yes”. #fostercare #fostercareawareness by @tayrenitup

I often think about all those years of waiting. The ones where I had babies in my heart, but none in my hands.

As I reflect back on that season I can honestly say, I wouldn’t trade it for anything. God forged something in me during those years. A tenacity. A gritty faith. The ability to believe that He’s still good, even if I don’t get what I want.

The truth is there are certain things that the valley teaches us, that the mountain top never will. And what I learned in the valley is something I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Now just a few years later, I’ve had the privilege of helping raise 6 (almost 7 children), some biologically and some through foster care. Talk about a story I could have never written on my own! But isn’t that just like God? He’s not just good…He’s a God of abundance, blessing and overflow.

So I guess if I could say something to anyone in the wait, it’d be this…don’t waste it. Press in. Keep believing God. Stand on His word. You may not get what you asked for, but you’ll get something even better in the process…you’ll get HIM, the greatest gift of all.

Revival is here. GOD IS MOVING IN THE FOSTER CARE SYSTEM!!! All gas, no breaks…we’re not slowing down or turning the page. Because there are still so many kids in need. And the Church is still the answer 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

We will be hosting our next orientation on Sept. 8 at Zion Church, open to anyone and everyone in OC!

It’s rare to find people who feel more like family than friends, but that’s what the Toledos have been to us. And that’s what makes the goodbye so hard ❤️‍🩹

I have been beyond blessed and impacted by your love for my children @surfamily @ricardinhotoledo. One of the greatest ways to love a mom is to love her kids, and you have done that (above and beyond!) The sacrifice, love, and bond you’ve built feels like one of God’s greatest gifts to me as we’ve navigated the challenges of raising four boys.

You will always be Kellen’s Brazilian grandparents, no matter the distance!!! Lots of FaceTimes, phone calls and trips to Brazil to come ✈️

We love you SO MUCH and bless you to go in God’s favor and abundance as you step into this next adventure. I know He has amazing plans in store, and we’re cheering you on from San Clemente ❤️ by @tayrenitup
