This is Melissa Rainey Pierson story.  
 
It was the first time out from under my parents roof. I was sharing an apartment with my brother and stopped going to church and met a guy my brother didn’t like him but to pay less rent he let me have him move in ( I ended up paying 2/3 of the rent). when I found out I was PG I kicked him out of the apartment and my life. walking through the doors of the church was one of the scariest things I have ever done luckily they were loving and supportive. when I realized I wouldn’t be able to take care of him on my own (and I didn’t want to put the burden on my parents) I decided I needed to give him to someone that could. I went to the phone book and there were 2 Christian Adoption Agency’s - I made the Initial phone calls and One turned me off and the other on. I knew who I was going with. They have each family make a scrap book to show who they are so when I got those in I Sat and pondered and prayed and finally came to a decision.and then did it all over because I picked the wrong family. I finally landed upon Lynn and Mike. I had my When I found out around Christmas that they had the same first and middle name picked out I knew it was right. He stayed in my room while I was in the hospital. his mom and dad came to tally the day after he was born - very nice people - the right people. God has a plan for him and I was part of it. He will always have a place in my ehart and I hope that one day he will come find me. It won’t be hard, the adoption agency will always know where I am.
