Adoption Update

Our Dossier was mailed at the beginning of the month and is NOW in country (in Ethiopia)! Another step closer to our little boy.

According to our agency, Adoption Avenues, come the 15th of August, 2013 we will be officially on the wait list for our child (referral). We're still in need of some fundraising to meet our end goal amount. So please check out our fundraising tab to see where you can help and share it with others.

Thank You for your continued prayers and support  :)

Progress Update

BIG news to share this week!

 

Our Hoss's fundraiser is complete and we raised a total of $370.00. It wasn't quite the outcome that we were hoping for, but we're very grateful for each dollar. A very special thank you to ALL who came out to support our cause. We hope to have another fundraiser in the fall... We'll keep you posted.

 

In other news, thanks to the diligent efforts of my dedicated wife, our dossier (which is the collection of all our paperwork that's been compiled over the past three months) is now COMPLETE! It has truly been an enlightening and humbling experience completing this milestone. Thank you God for getting us to this point and all those who had their hand in helping us with it! Please pray for this special document as it travels from our agency to DC for authentication, then off to Ethiopia for translation and registration. We're hoping to have it registered "in country ~ Ethiopia" within three weeks... We're one step closer to one less orphan in the world.
