Update & Eternal Family Program

Hello friends and family!

We are so thankful for all of your encouragement, prayer and support in this process so far.

 A quick update for you: We have our home study agency selected and are at a point in the process where we have a LOT of information coming in. This is both exciting and a little overwhelming-there is so much to go through!

We are also taking online courses and both Jordan and I have passed all of our exams so far!

Many of you have asked if there is anything you can do, and here is a way you can help us. Through our adoption agency, we are automatically enrolled in the "Eternal Family Program". What is that you ask? It is designed to help families going through the adoption process, like us, get financial help from friends, family, co-workers, church family or even someone who just happens to be following our story that we haven't met yet.

So far, we have been able to pay for every bill that's been attached to this adventure, but we also know that adoption is an expensive adventure.

I have continued selling Origami Owl which has helped a lot, but we have also had a few people simply give us donations, stating that jewelry is not their thing, but they wanted to help. These acts of generosity are so kind and we are extraordinarily grateful to all who have helped us along the way!

If you would like to help our family during this process, we recently found out that you can! It would be an enormous blessing to our family, and would help alleviate some of the costs of the adoption process.

Here's how you do it. Click on the link below or copy/paste into your address bar. From there, scroll down and on the right you should see "Support a Family. Donate today." Underneath that, you fill in your information and the family you are supporting. We ask that you enter: "Jordan & Dusty Duncan" into that section. After that, it will ask you to enter payment information. Here's the link!

We have actually known about this program for a while now, but honestly feel a bit odd asking for people to just give us money. Please know you don't have to give anything, but if you want to, we will gladly accept! Thank you so much to all who do! If you cannot afford to give us anything, please give us your prayers!
