 Lifesong is rejoicing with Matt & Jenni as they welcomed home their daughter from Ethiopia in August.  Lifesong had the honor of helping Matt & Jenni fundraise as they walked the journey of adoption.

Listen in to this special letter, written by Matt & Jenni, to their new daughter, Rachel Rose:

...now as we hold you in our arms, we are so thankful for each and every single delay that happened. Because of those delays - we were the family who got to be assigned to receive YOU. YOU were the exact child God had picked out for our family. Since before time began, it was in His plan that YOU, Rachel Rose, would be born in Ethiopia and then adopted into our family. How did we get to be so blessed? The word “thankful” hardly begins to describe the depth of our gratitude to have YOU as our daughter. -Matt & Jenni
