Thompson Family, Minnesota

We love AGCI. We have chosen to use AGCI for all three of our adoptions. We chose to use AGCI for numerous reasons. Some of them I will list below. We liked that AGCI was a Christian adoption agency, and that it was small. We love all the staff at AGCI. We love how truthful AGCI is. We love their heart for orphaned children. Not only for those adopted, but for those who will never be adopted. It was very important to us that our adoption agency prayed for us and cared for us. The staff at AGCI meets and prays for the families adopting. They know each family by name. They even take the time to get to know you as a friend. I laugh because when we were in China just recently and our guide asked me if I ever met our caseworkers in person. I said no, but told her that I love them. She asked me how I know so much about them. I explained to her that the adoption process is such an emotional experience. Talking to our caseworkers was like having "monthly doctor visits." I may not go to the doctor's office, but their phone call represents that. We love AGCI because they helped us to become a family. If it wasn't for AGCI, we would have never have met our children. I praise the Lord for AGCI.
