You may have noticed we’ve updated the header and background on our blog…it was about time. But also you may notice our photo has one blue balloon and the other balloon is missing. Well…we’ve realized in the last month that The Lord’s plans are far greater than our own. After transitioning all our paperwork from Haiti to the DRC (Congo) we once again requested two boys to join our family. Little did we know that two siblings had just been orphaned and even though they didn’t ‘match’ our criteria God had already matched them with us!
On August 25th we accepted a referral for a BROTHER and SISTER pair!! Ellie will have an older sister, slightly younger brother, and lots of new love in the family. We’ve already received all the paperwork on our future children to begin the court phase of the DRC adoption process. Things so far are moving quickly but we know we have a lot ahead of us so we’re asking you to join us in prayer!!
Lord, you are our Rock and Redeemer! We know your plans for us are greater than we could ever imagine for ourselves so we ask that your Will be done in our lives and family. We pray health and healing over sister G and brother A as they heal from great loss and as they wait for us to come fill the gap.
We love you and we need your wisdom, compassion, and patience as we pray and prepare to love on these sweet ones!
Amen
Life in the Mystery 
Thank you for this prayer! I needed to read and speak it today and thank our Father for all the things He is doing in our lives and your lives and the lives of those precious children. Thank you! 🙂
