Clay & Ellen Pogue

October 12, 2019 | Estill Springs, TN

Clay and Ellen Pogue have just celebrated their 18th wedding anniversary and have two biological daughters, Sophia; 17 years old and Abby; 15 years old. As a family, they enjoy helping their community. They had discussed adoption or fostering in the past but didn’t feel like the timing was ever right. After much prayer, they felt lead to adopt.

Orphans | Costa Rica

Five years ago, the Pogues fell in love with the people of Costa Rica. They have traveled back on several mission trips and decided to visit an orphanage. During their first visit to the orphanage in Costa Rica, they immediately bonded with a 10 year old boy, Miguel. Later, they learned he had a brother, Rafael. It wasn’t until after the next visit that the Pogues felt the timing was right for their family to adopt both brothers, who have spent 7 years in the orphanage. The Pogues are excited to become Miguel and Rafael’s forever family!
