Thank you for all your payers! We have finally received our referral!
You might be confused about this post.. wait... what was the post about at the end of March? Right?!? Well our paperwork was received in country and it appears that the gentleman who needed to sign the actual referral (this is the country approving us to adopt our little boy) was in the hospital and finally this past Friday was able to sign our document. Our document is now on its way to the country's capital for its official seal of approval. This means we should be traveling in approx 4ish weeks!
God as seen us through, and made us lean into him, focus on his goodness, love, and care. He has really spoken to me (Jennifer) though these two songs on auto play as loud as my 17 year old CRV speakers can take. Lauren Daigle's Trust in You and Casting Crowns Just Be Held. I hope they bring you comfort in a time of drought. It has been a long couple of months but I am learning that even in the waiting there are things to learn.
Next step is to get the document approved, translated, and attached with our Immigration 800 Application.
Please pray:
-for God's peace over the next month
-that the gathering of all the paperwork (referral and immigration) goes quickly.
-over our little guy as he waits
-over his foster family
-for preparation for his arrival
-our unknown travel schedule
