Share information with your church family and pastor to help raise awareness of Orphan Sunday/November Adoption Awareness Month and join in prayer together for the building of families through adoption and foster care.
Keep us in your prayers as we are still waiting for paperwork to be signed and delivered to us from the Ethiopian government. The wait can get very frustrating at times as in our point of view, we just don't understand why things take so very long. Every Friday we get a new picture and a health report of our little boy from our adoption agency. It's a blessing to see him growing well and a praise that he has been healthy! It is also so hard to see him getting bigger and stronger, growing up, and still is without his family. We hold on to God's sovereignty and trust that He is doing a good work and He IS faithful to complete it. There is no gain in worrying and fretting about what tomorrow may or may not bring. So daily we surrender our plans over to the Lord and in prayer and joy, and continue pressing on!
Thank you for your prayers!! I know the Lord hears as He has been keeping our little guy healthy among the sicknesses that are around him. There are still little room-mates of his who are ill with the measles and pneumonia, so please be in prayer for them and their worried families who wonder how their babies are feeling half-way around the globe.
Keep checking in and we'll keep you updated when excitement starts brewing again!!
