Great is Thy Faithfulness

Well a couple things we need to share!

First, a lot of you were asking how I got to skype (facetime) with B this past week so I wanted to share a bit about that. On facebook I am a part of a group of people adopting from Haiti as well. It's an amazing group where we can ask questions, lay down prayer requests, and build a community. Through this I have met and become friends with other who have their child at Chance for Children like B. One of the mom's was at the creche this past week and was able to take pictures of our girl, send us videos of her, give her videos of us, and then we set up a facetime to chat. It is a HUGE blessing!!!

Second, we got an email yesterday letting us know that the birth certificate we had been waiting to be legalized.... was actually misprinted and now must go BACK to the archives and have it reprinted correctly... We have been waiting for this BC for over 2 months.... So it's starting to sound like it may be ANOTHER 2 months before we get the BC printed correctly, legalized, and submitted to USCIS. Oh to feel completely shattered... To get the wind that was finally passed our way through pictures and phone calls to be knocked right back out of us a day later.... It's so unfathomable.

Anyway, God is good... and is providing... We would love for you to join us in prayer this Monday from 6-7 at Mt. Calvary Lutheran Church(we will sing, pray, and sing and pray). If you are far away from us or cannot make it, if you can stop and pray during that time we would greatly appreciate it. If you have your shirt or your bracelet wear it Monday and pray, pray, pray... We want our girl home so bad.. We believe in the power of prayer and the power of the Lord. Pray that this paper work gets done SOON. Prepare her heart and ours for this new transition. And pray for strength and courage during this time.
