Going Home
After returning back home, and settling in, Aaron had a different idea. He had a lifelong dream, which was to study a Master of Divinity – pastoral degree. He began school at the Reformed Theological Seminary in Jackson, Mississippi, and followed his dream. But it was still on the couple’s mind to one day return to Honduras. A few years passed and the duo began to think about having their first child, the big question was if they should adopt or conceive.

Thye also both had plans to serve their own community in Mississipi as well. As missionaries, they knew that there was always more to be done. Aaron worked at the Second Presbyterian in Yazoo City, he was an intern and youth director there. At this point, The Halberts started to truly consider adoption. When speaking to the Washington Post Aaron said, “We see the protection of children not as charity, nor as part of a political agenda, but as something near to the heart of God.”
