DEAR BIRTH MOTHER AND FATHER:


   We thank you for visiting with us on this web site. Adoption is the most difficult and selfless decision you will ever make in your life. We believe adoption to be the most loving, self-sacrificing act that you as a birth parent may ever make on behalf of your child.


Outstanding Features of CFLC's Domestic US Adoption Program:
  • As a birth parent you can choose the adoptive parents from an adoptive parent picture portfolio at Christian Family Life Center.
  • As birth parents you have the opportunity to meet with the adoptive parents, spending time getting to know one another.
  • CFLC licenses the adoptive parents as the foster home in order for the baby to go home with the adoptive parents soon as possible after birth and after an order is issued from the Court. This pertains to adoption occurring in Missouri.
  • If mutually agreed upon, the adoptive parents supply pictures to the birth parents for an agreed upon time throughout the child's life.
  • Some adoptive parents are open to visits by the birth parents in an agreed upon setting with the child.


What Adoption is:

  • Making a carefully thought out plan and loving plan for your unborn child's life.

What Adoption is not:

  • An act of abandonment or neglect.

Reasons why birth parents make an adoption plan:

  • They are unable to financially support a child.
  • They are not emotionally ready to parent.
  • They desire their child to have the benefit of a two parent family.
