IN HIS HANDS . . .

Well, today we had a wonderful visit with our case worker doing our home study update. What a joy to speak with and share all that has happened in our family over the past 2 years. It was great sharing all about how the Lord has put this young lady in our hearts and how it is going to be only through His miraculous works that she will come to be in our home. Now, we continue to lift her up in prayer, do everything we can to be God's instrument here on earth, and pray for His church to join us in welcoming her "home" into His Christian family.

Some people have asked "what next?" We need to raise $1000.00 to send to the Ukraine to officially begin this paper process. We are starting at $55.00 and pray others will help us spread the word, so we can move this as quickly as possible to prevent her from being homeless. We have found out we are the ONLY ones that have a chance to adopt her now, as no one else filed any forms in time. Jon and I are saving and he is working overtime when available to cover the home study and passport fees. Please join us on your knees for God's hand in her life. Thank you in advance to anyone who may be able contribute, and/or spread the word of this need to others.

"I also tell you this: If two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you. For where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them."
Matthew 18:19-
20
