Travel Date Set

January 10 is our travel date. We leave Indianapolis for a few weeks to pick up our children. We are busy preparing our home for our new additions and getting ourselves ready for an extended time away from home. This has been tricky as we are also in the midst of the holiday season. Our hearts are so excited about picking up and meeting our children and then returning to introduce them to Berkeley, Lukas and Isabelle. Pray for the transition for all involved.

Ukraine Trip

I was able to join a group from our agency on a trip to Ukraine. It was an amazing and life changing time. We visited 4 orphanages and spent most of our time at the one that Oleg had lived in for years. While there, I met many of his friends and made new friends of my own: ) A connection was made by me and a sweet boy. We are preparing to return to him and adopt him and his sister!!! Our dossier has been submitted and we are waiting on an exact date for travel. We have been given estimates of mid- December to the beginning of January. Please keep us in your prayers as we prepare to leave our children for a few weeks and raise the rest of our funds. We are ready for this journey and look forward to God meeting us at every turn. He is forever faithful!!
