Gratitude for the Fortitude

Ladies and Gentlemen, we received official word from our agency:  Tomorrow, YES TOMORROW,  is our new court date!  Please, pray for the MOWA official reviewing our case to be Spirit lead as he ultimately decides the future of our family.  I think it necessary to say I will praise the Lord for fixing our eyes on Him while we waited for the unknown to take shape.  My gratitude for the fortitude He supplies.

Psalms 27:13-14 I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.  Wait for the LORD; be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord.

      Our next step will be for our agency to submit us to embassy. We are praying it goes without a hitch.

  5. Hey! I was just looking through the FBI and saw your family's blog. I'm leaving for Ethiopia the 8th. If I can take anything for you to your kiddos, I'm more than happy to do so! Just let me know :)

    1. Rebecca,
      I ask and see what we are allowed to send the kids. In the big kids' houses, they prefer not "giving" them anything. I may ask you to take a letter to each of them. Are you staying at BeJoe? If so, I'll ask Genet or Blein to translate them for the kids. AND you KNOW any pics would be so loved. THANK YOU for reaching out!!
