All Things New with Kaycee Stanley from The Reel Hope Project

Central Lutheran Church - Elk River

When hearts converge, joy and hope take flight—this is the essence of our latest episode, featuring the passionate Kaycee Stanley from the Reel Hope Project. Alongside her husband, Kaycee breathes life into the stories of children in foster care, beckoning forever families to open their arms through the power of video storytelling. With over 400 children featured and 204 family matches made, the ripple effect of their work is as undeniable as it is inspiring. We recount the touching tale of Taj, who dreams of floating like a butterfly in the boxing ring and constructing his future as an architect, showcasing just how much these narratives can move mountains.
Our own journey mirrors the transformative nature of adoption, as we chart the emotional reconnection with our son Tez's birth mother, Mama P. What began as a tentative email exchange unfolded into a healing voyage, marked by forgiveness and acceptance. We invite listeners into the intimate spaces of our first coffee shop meeting with Mama P, her integration into our household, and the shared milestones that have since woven the rich fabric of our expanded family. This chapter of our lives is a powerful affirmation of the enduring bonds of love and the incredible resilience of the human spirit.
Wrapping up with a reflection on the bittersweet symphony that is the adoption process, we share the ebbs and flows of international adoption, the anticipation of meeting a new child, and the jubilation when the final gavel declares a family complete. Our narrative is a testament to faith in action, the willingness to open one's home, and the monumental impact it can make on a child's life. We extend an invitation to our listeners to discover more and lend their support to the Real Hope Project, a beacon of hope in the lives of many children awaiting the love of a family.
