The beginning

12 February 2012
Dear Family and Friends!!!!
Ken and I wanted to pass along some very exciting news!!!!! We are in the process of adopting a little boy from China. Two weeks ago, we received a referral!!!! He is 3 ½ years old and has been in the orphanage for a year and half. For those who have not walked this journey with us, we have been exploring adoption for over 3 years now and in November 2011 we finally got a green light to proceed forward. Our level of shock to the ‘yes’ is still palpable. God, in His infinite mercy, has had us walk slowly and with open hands and for 3 years the doors were closed, now they are opening at a rapid rate. We are committed to following where God leads us and we are very excited and frankly scared to see what He does.
First, we ask for prayers:
For wisdom for Ken leading our family and unity for us
Protection over our marriage and our son Maddux
Courage to follow God where He leads
Soften our hearts to the road of healing ahead
Hedge of protection around this little one in China – heart, mind and body
Second, we are asking for help:
Financially, this will be daunting. We ask that you prayerfully consider donating to our adoption fund to help bring this little one home to us. I have listed below the immediate need and the total amount needed.
FIRST AMOUNT NEEDED BY FEBRUARY 20TH: $4500
TOTAL AMOUNT NEEDED: $29,500

We thank you so much for supporting us by prayer and if led financially!!!! We are ever so grateful for our friends and family and the words of encouragement you have provided so far.
Thank you so very much!
