PRAY!

On Friday we received more updates that I thought I would pass along to all of you. I will try and keep you all posted when I find out more! We are trusting in God and we continue in our Faith that He is in control, of all our children, not man.
Here is what our agency had to say on Friday afternoon. Be praying as the Liberian government will be meeting this next week concerning adoptions in their country. Please pray that decisions and changes will be made this week!!!
I was finally able to get through to Oretha a short time ago. What she has heard is:
* The adoption committee is supposed to be meeting with the President next week. * This does not automatically mean the President will issue an order about adoption next week - all we can do is hope and pray that she does and decisions/changes, etc., are very fair to families and children.
* The rumor in Liberia is that children already in agency foster homes will be allowed to have their adoptions completed and to leave Liberia.
* Future adoptions will be scrutinized much more carefully.
* The President reportedly wants international adoption to be the last possibility for Liberian children so it sounds like adoptions will be limited in the future.
As always, when I know more I will let families know.

We received another email from our agency stating that when they talked to Oretha, the "mother" in charge of the foster home in Liberia, Oretha had told them that she wanted us to take us to meet as many Liberian government officials as possible. I don't know what this means, or what we will be meeting with them about, but it's an opportunity to share with them our hearts, desires, and our God's love! So you can be praying for us to have the words to say to them all :)
