Today marks a new chapter in this long book...
We. Have. A. Referral!
There's a 3 1/2 year old little boy in the Congo we are praying is ours! (and yes Moses is almost exactly 3 1/2:-)
I wish I could share his name and picture and what very little we know about him but we cannot until he is legally ours...
What I can share is that he is preciously adorable and we all love to stare at his picture!
Please pray that the investigation into his orphan status and collection of his legal documents (birth certificate, witness statements, etc) goes quickly and smoothly! Once that is complete our case will be filed for court. It could take 6-8 months for that to happen...
Pray, pray, pray!
this is so exciting! i'm so pleased for all of you.
ReplyDeletethinking, still, about "your" ethiopian son, i know even the child you never see benefits from the love and prayers you offer up for him.
love you,

YAY! So exciting. Hopefully it will go by quickly so you can bring your son home!
ReplyDeletePraying right now! Excited to see what the Lord does! So thankful for his faithfulness to your family!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteAbe and I celebrate with your family on this blessed Thanksgiving day. I will forever have Abe's face etched in my mind when I would lay there at night staring at his picture on my phone, knowing that that was my son. I will pray that Jesus will continue to lead your steps and it is more than I can concieve when I think that He is interceding on my behalf and on your family's behalf at this very moment. He too grieves and celebrates with you.
ReplyDeleteThe moments when he completely carries us are what speak to the world the loudest. May
God bless your family and we can't wait to meet him.
