Hello!  If you are considering adoption and ready to take your first baby step in the process, please register to attend the June Orientation meeting, and submit your Initial Inquiry now.  We offer Pre-Service training (required to complete a homestudy) in June and then not again until early October. Questions:  Please contact barb@spiritoffaithadoptions.org or 419.843.5355 ext 2.  She and her husband adopted their daughter through SOFA 12 years ago, and now she is our Outreach Coordinator! 

SOFA goes above and beyond in helping us prepare to raise an adopted child.
SOFA Adoptive Mom and Dad
From the initial call, through our match to finalization, our family was respected and cared about. The ups and downs of the journey were so supported!
SOFA Adoptive Mom
SOFA limits how many waiting families. We weren’t just a number! We truly felt SOFA cares about all in the journey: the baby, the birth mom and the adoptive family. Everyone is loved, cared for and respected.
SOFA Adoptive Mom
I have been incredibly honored to partner with Spirit of Faith in the adoption of my children. They are wonderful people.
SOFA Adoptive Dad
I can't explain what a gift it is to be able to grow my family this way. I look forward to our family reunions!
SOFA Adoptive Mom of 2
Every time I call SOFA, you are so helpful in answering my questions, and you bring God into the conversation. That’s been hopeful and helpful. Having you guys there is comforting.
