July Update

Wow! There was a ton of movement during our first month on "the list". We moved nine spots and are now sitting at number....

 

There were ten children who were matched with their forever families - six babies, a sibling set of two, one older child, and a child with special needs! How exciting! From what I have heard, this much movement in one month is not customary. The past two months have only had two referrals each month. It has also been exciting to see the milestones of other families as they receive referrals, court hearings, and clear the embassy to bring their children home. If you happen to be another Lifeline family adopting from Ethiopia - feel free to message me about joining the "unofficial closed facebook group".

And now, the wait for July begins!

"And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins."

~ Colossians 1: 9-14~
