Frequently Asked Questions

We’re here to guide you through the adoption process with compassion, experience, and support from beginning to end.

We believe every child deserves a safe, healthy, happy, and stable home, and every adult deserves the opportunity to adopt without discrimination based on race, ethnicity, sex, or Christian faith. New Beginnings carefully screens families through required background, reference, and home study processes while providing domestic and international adoption services.

We strive to keep our fees as low and reasonable as possible. We invite you to compare these fees and our process with other legitimate, licensed child-placing agencies. Prior to a child being placed with you for adoption, the only funds you will pay are the Domestic Adoption Application processing fee ($1,100) and your home study fee. Our fees are ALL INCLUSIVE and include processing the Domestic Adoption Application and the home study fee.

Each of our adoption programs has specific requirements for prospective adoptive parents. Contact our team, and we’ll help you determine which program may be the best fit for your family and walk you through its requirements.

Every adoption journey is unique, and timelines vary depending on the program, the individual circumstances, and the requirements involved. Our team can help you understand what to expect and provide a clearer timeline based on the program you’re pursuing.

New Beginnings Statement of Faith

PROSPECTIVE ADOPTIVE APPLICANTS SHOULD SIGN BELOW TO ACKNOWLEDGE THEIR FULL AGREEMENT WITH AND ADHERENCE TO THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS OF FAITH.

New Beginnings Statement of Faith

The Statement of Faith is an essential foundation for our ministry.

We believe:

  • That the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are inspired by God, inerrant in the original writings serving as the only infallible authoritative Word of God for faith and life.
  • There is one living and true God, the Creator, who exemplifies Himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  • Jesus is both fully God and fully man, born of the virgin Mary, lived a sinless life, died on the cross to pay our debts, physically rose from the dead, ascended into heaven, is seated at the right hand of the Father, and will return to establish His reign.
  • Jesus Christ is the only mediator between God and man interceding on behalf of those who accept Him as Lord and Savior. His death on the cross served as an atoning sacrifice, and whoever believes in Him and repents of their sins is justified on the ground of His shed blood.
  • That God created mankind, both male and female, in His image, that mankind sinned by disobeying God resulting in both physical and spiritual death, that because of the fall every human being is born into sin and stands guilty before God.
  • Salvation is a wholly free gift of Grace given solely by God and is not the work, in whole or in part, of human works or goodness or religious ceremony. God extends His righteousness to those who place their faith in Christ alone for their salvation and thereby justified them in His sight.
  • The Holy Spirit reveals and glorifies Christ and continues the saving work of Christ to individuals. The Holy Spirit convicts and draws sinners to Christ, delivers new life to them, dwells within new believers, empowers and guides believers into godly living, and seals them until the day of redemption.
  • That the resurrection of the dead includes all mankind, the believer to life everlasting and the unbeliever to eternal condemnation.
  • That God created the world as described in the book of Genesis, that He created male and female in His image ascribing gender biologically at conception and establishing marriage between one man and one woman as the first covenant relationship.
  • In the value and sanctity of human life from conception until natural death.
  • That adoption is the gospel and is presented as the means God uses to bring new believers into His family. Adoption is also affirmed in Scripture, demonstrated by the adoption of Moses and the adoption of Christ by his earthly father Joseph.
  • That Christ called all believers to proclaim the Gospel throughout the world and to disciple people of every nation. We believe that adoption is part of fulfilling this calling.
