Our Story
Michael and Denise Redman were both born and raised in the Southwest OKC/Moore area. They met while in the Moore High School Band and dated for 5 years. They have been married for 18 years and have 3 biological daughters, Emily-17, Katie-13 and Julianna-9. They live in Moore, OK where Denise is a stay at home mom and has homeschooled their daughters for 10 years. She also has a home-based business as a jeweler with Premier Designs Jewelry and has been doing this for 5 years. Michael currently works for Midfirst Bank as a Bank Operations Supervisor. He has been in the banking industry for over 19 years. Their family has attended First Baptist Church of Moore for over 20 years. Throughout their married life, Michael and Denise casually talked about adopting but were busy raising their 3 daughters and going through life's experiences. It was not until recently that the Lord spoke to their hearts to seriously consider adoption when hearing about the Eliproject, an adoption ministry developed by friends at their church. After prayer and discussing it with their daughters they decided unanimously to pursue the calling of opening their hearts and home to a child in need of a forever family. The word of the Lord that was spoken to Michael's heart on the evening that the familly committed to adopt comes from Matthew 25:40 "I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine you did for Me".
