DOSSIER DONE



This is our wonderful friend and notary extraordinaire, Katie. Here she is notarizing our letter to Ethiopia requesting a child for adoption.

On Thursday two copies of our dossier (the collection of papers, forms, etc.) were sent to our agency. They will take about one week to process it and then send it back to us. From there it will go to Washington D.C. to the Sec. of States office and then to the Ethiopian embassy. Next it will go back to our agency in N.C. and then it's on it's way to the precious land of ETHIOPIA, AFRICA!! I had no idea how good it would feel to get it out the door!! If you are reading this because you too are adopting, have adopted or are considering it then you understand the excitement of this day.


Let me also share another amazing God story that happened this week. We needed to send a rather large amount of $ this week with our dossier and we were getting pretty close to what we needed. We were given a finacial gift this week that got us to the goal we needed almost to the exact dollar!! And the giver had no idea that amount we needed. What keeps ringing in my heart is "Give us this day, our daily bread". It has been an honor to be inolved in what God is doing all around us!!

Congrats on getting your dossier done. Looks like it went pretty fast for you. Caring Hands is the courior we used in DC. They got everything done for us and then back to CWA. We were pleased. Yes, thank you for your prayers. It will be the hand of the Lord to get us a court date before they close. But that is what I'm praying for. We appreciate all the prayers we can get.
