We are Going to China!

Our prayers have been answered! We received our consulate appointment for July 9th! This was our first choice as it allows us to get Maeli home before the consulate closes in July and it gives us almost a month at home before school starts! That means we will meet our daughter next week! God has shown His power in a mighty way! Praise be to God.

My intentions for blogging earlier in the week were interrupted by the need to make travel plans including airline tickets that seem to increase by the minute! Again, God blessed us with friends who donated miles to help us bring our daughter home.  All arrangments are set and we are ready to go to China!!!  From flights, to hotels, to packing, to orphanage donations, God has worked it ALL out!  The to-do list(s) have been long, but with the help of friends and family:  It's complete!

We stand in awe at the wonderful way God uses His people to bless His people. We could never monetarily repay all those who have helped financially, with their talents, giving of their resources, or the power of their prayer during this journey. Please know how thankful we are by all the kindness and generosity you've shown! I'll post our itinerary tonight!



Much Love,
- Jessica
