12 days to liftoff!!

PRAISE GOD!! WE HAVE OUR APPOINTMENT DATE- JUNE 16TH!! WE HAVE TO TRAVEL ON THE 14TH TO ARRIVE IN COUNTRY ON THE 15TH!!

I am awaiting on the email so we can order tickets and get things in order. I am freakin' to say the least. It only gives us 12 days to get ready!! I have to admit I have procrastinated a bit since it just seemed like this day would never get here. The bank is ordering money but won't have it until next week Thursday and we have to pray that it will be in great shape and new enough for the unnamed country! We are still short on the funds needed to travel. I beg if you have ever even considered donating and was waiting please donate now. There is no time we are literally right at the doorstep of reaching Joshua and need help reaching our threshold.

I will try to post more later. Please continue to pray for us and for all the families who are on the same journey as we are!

  5. We are looking at about 4k short right now. This trip is where we get his referral, travel to his region and then about two weeks into it we have court where he is then ours. There is a 10 day automatic wait period they enforce where we can return home to wait but we plan on staying during the whole trip and return home with him. We are looking at a 4-5 week stay in his country.
