I wanted to give everyone an update or sorts. Honestly, we don't have much to update about. We are still waiting to get our I-800 approval from the USCIS so that Claudia's country can issue the Article 5 and tell us to come get her. We have been told by our agency that if this does not happen this week that we will not be traveling this year. Even if it does happen, there is little chance that we will travel this year BUT we have HOPE. I have been in contact with our Immigrations officer, I am convinced she is the best of them all! She has been so nice to us during this process and puts up with my emails. Our paperwork has not gotten to her yet but she said that she will make it a priority once she does get it and told us: "Do not give up hope." How sweet is that? Please pray for us this week that things will move quickly and that we will get a travel date in the next 2 weeks or so. I sounds impossible, but nothing is impossible for God.
We are still very short on the funds we will need to travel and will most likely have to take out a hefty loan to cover the rest of the adoption cost. Please keep this need in your prayers as well.
We are in the path of hurricane Sandy. Please keep us in your prayers for this as well. We cannot afford any damage from this storm. Please pray for everyone that will be affected by this storm and that help will get to where it is needed in a timely manner.
The teens from our Church are leaving this morning for Peru on a missions trip with Dominic Russo Ministries. Please keep them in your prayers as well as they travel for their safety and for a meaningful learning experience.
That is all I have for now, I will update you as we get new information.
