If You Want To Be Inspired

Please watch the following video. It is a video that will awe and inspire you. It is the transformation of a bare bones orphanage in Ethiopia.

THIS is what you can be part of if you will just donate. Every little bit helps!

Be prepared to cry. It is beautiful!

Please Partner With Us In Prayer

REQUESTS:

Please pray: We need the government to agree to give us back our overpayment. This would probably nearly cover our outrageous flight fees in August. To the tune of $16,000 for 4 out and six people returning.

PRAISES:

~ We had an amazingly fast court date: 5 weeks!! The girls are ours!

~ Our referral WAS a quick one!! It was 3 months, 30 days! We were referred two girls: 4 1/2 & 3 1/2.

~ The medical can now be begun at referral, rather than at court date, thereby shortening our 'time til travel by 2-3 months' after court date!!

~ Our file has gone to Ethiopia - St. Nicholas Day!

~ Our homestudy is complete and approved!

~ Cassidy got the part of Randolph in the musical Bye Bye Birdie, after sacrificing his television/movie auditions trips for the adoption.

~We have been so blessed by the kindness of all our friends in caring for our children while we have been at seminars and meetings.

~Our social worker is a really nice lady.

~Due to no comments stating the opposite I can only assume that our financial situation is acceptable to everyone.

~We had the pleasure of meeting another Ethiopian adoption family that lives in our province!

~ We made friends with a kind Ethiopian man who will have his son take us around Addis Ababa, Ethiopia!

~ We don't need to wait for Ministry Approval as our agency can give this approval!! One less step involved!!

~We received a $750 mystery cheque from the government!

~ Our medical exams & tests came back free of problems!
