January Update

Well, it has been a little over a month since our last post. Let me share with you what has happened.




Not much. The reason for this is mainly because we are trying to get things in order to send off the next set of paperwork (about 30 pages.) Along with that is a certain amount of money that we don't exactly have sitting in the bank. However, we know that God has burdened us to do this and that in God's time- He WILL provide. Some have asked questions regarding the time frame of the adoption- this all depends on us getting our end of it done (what I've already mentioned) and then the adoption agency working hand in hand with the Peruvian government for their part. For anyone that has done this before, or knows someone that has- you know how daunting of a process this can be and we've just begun to scratch the surface.

The exciting news is that God has sent some work to our side business- At Hand Interpreting, that will not only allow us to give some work to some local interpreters but also make some extra money we hadn't expected to. We praise God for this opportunity because it is DIRECTLY from Him.

In addition to that, there are some other things in the works currently as far as fundraisers. We hope to get that information out soon to everyone in case there is any interest out there to help out. Also at some point soon we will share how one can make a tax-deductible gift if they choose to do so.

Daily our prayer is that God will give strength and patience in this process, and ultimately that He will bring our little girl home in His time.

Blessings,
Jonathan, Michelle, Jaiden, Levi & our little angel.
