Suddenly it's Spring: August 2013

MILLIONS!

There are millions of orphans in our world. That's millions of innocent children with no one committed to loving and teaching them as they grow. Far too many children aging out of their orphanages each year and expected to fend for themselves with no support and a great deal of stigma against their orphan status. There are many children with health issues who do not receive the medical care they need to survive or thrive. We believe that God, who offers to love and adopt each of us and meet our every need, longs for us to go and do the same. There are many hurting people in this world and many ways to help and we certainly don't expect that every person will pursue adoption. We do hope that more will.

We Have Dates!!!

It's been a very long wait but we finally have dates. We need to be in Ukraine for our appointment on September 23. It is SO good to know when we're actually going to go after months of guessing.

Now we gather necessary items, pack, book plane tickets, get haircuts, etc... Just three weeks, I think it's going to fly by :)

We would appreciate prayer for continued healing of my concussion (it is much better) , good plane tickets, preparation of stuff and our hearts, and most of all that the little girl we long to meet will still be waiting when we get there! Also, please pray for protection and preparation of her heart. We hope she will soon be our daughter.
