God has answered our prayers!! We have a confirmed embassy date next week -- Wednesday, February 23! We truly believe this is nothing short of a miracle and we give all glory to God. To all those who have prayed for us along the way, THANK YOU!
[P.S. There are two YWAM families, both dear dear friends of ours, who are still waiting... will you please join us in continued prayer for them? Lord have mercy and bring these families good news SOON! Amen.]

ReplyDeleteHi... I know you guys don't know me... and I know right now you're ready to go get your son... I rejoice with you!!!! When you get back and have a moment, please email me. Last year I lived and worked at the home you are getting your son from. I've seen your blog a couple of times and I was trying to place him. There were so many little ones when we left. But I do believe I have now connected the dots. If he is who I believe he is, I have some pictures of him and also many sweet memories. May your time in Ethiopia be a blessing.... you will each be in my prayers.
