First Seminar Prayer Request

On Thursday (yesterday) I ran into town and picked up Ray's passport from the church, checked the contents and sent it off in the mail. One more document 'on the way'. We are now waiting for the passport and the fingerprints to come back.

That could be 2-8 weeks.

We have our first educational seminar on Saturday, July 28. This seminar commences the educational part of our homestudy. This is a one day seminar is an orientation for adoption. It begins to cover the issues that adoptive families and adoptees will face. The seminar is in a town that is a five hour drive from where we live, the seminar is 8 hours longs, plus, we intend to drive home the same night (to save hotel costs and because of babysitting issues). It will be about an 18 hour day.

Please pray that we can find childcare that will come into our home (much easier than taking the little ones out) and that Briton will be comfortable with. He is very sweet, but he is not used to being taken care of by other people and his big brothers (14 and 16) are away at camp and cannot look after him. At the moment all avenues have been closed due to two friend's moving that weekend, family with a surgery, etc etc! But God is bigger than this!
