This was God's plan all along, for them to grow their family through the gift of adoption. They look forward to the day when they get to bring their baby home and become a family of four!

The Schmidt Family

The Schmidt Family

Mason and Sharon Schmidt live in Grovetown, GA. They met in 2015 and have been married for 6 years. Mason is an Offensive Security Engineer for the Army. Sharon volunteers as a Registered Nurse at Hope Women’s Center. Mason and Sharon are active members of Warren Grovetown where they are surrounded by an incredible church family that pours into them, encourages them, and prays with them and for them. Early in their marriage, Mason and Sharon were diagnosed with unexplained infertility. Through the grief and disappointment of that season, they felt God leading them toward growing their family through adoption. They just didn’t know when it would happen. Earlier this year, they felt God nudging them to step out in faith- trusting Him to provide far more abundantly than they could ask or think. They are so excited to be starting this journey and to be participating in Trot to Adopt!
