Tom Emmer announces Yagers are Angels in Adoption Honorees

By Brenda Erdahl

Congressman Tom Emmer (MN-06) announced early last week the honorees of the 2020 Angels in Adoption from Minnesota’s Sixth Congressional District are none other than Markus and Sarah Yager.

Each year, the Congressional Coalition on Adoption Institute (CCAI) selects families across the nation who have demonstrated a commitment to improving the lives of children in need of permanent, loving, forever homes.

Markus, a 2007 graduate of Maple Lake High School and son of LeeAnn and Ken Yager of Maple Lake and his wife Sarah are being honored this year for their enduring fight and sacrifices to adopt their daughter, Olivia from Nigeria.
