Testimonials

We ultimately decided to use Christian Services because of the fact that everyone involved received counseling about their decision. We felt this was especially important when it came to birth mothers. We decided the only "healthy" adoption situation had to include the emotional needs of the birth mother being met. We felt Christian Services did that. Through Christian Services we were made to understand the needs and feelings of birth parents and how vital that is to a "good adoption" situation - and not only the adoption itself, but the entire life of what will be your children -- how they will feel about their adoption and themselves.
