On the Adoption Front, some of you may be asking "what's happening?"
And as of right now.
we continue to wait for Immigrations Pre-approval to bring orphans/our children home into our country.
we were under the understanding this typically takes somewhere between 30-90 days from fingerprinting. we now know that it can take longer than 90 days after receiving all needed documentation-from our adoption agency. {finger printed March 31... all documents received beginning of May}
So instead of receiving our approval sometime in June, we will prayerfully receive it before the end of Summer.
Upon Immigrations approval, we are clear to send our dossier (official paperwork; homestudy, Dr. letters, birth certificates, and countless other documents) to Ethiopia.
The dossier is then translated and we will officially be on the "waiting list".
*note: Our dossier must be accompanied with the first of our in-country fee's.
"in quietness and trust is your strength... For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for him!" Isaiah 30: 15, 18
we continue to pray ahead, $ave all we can, and trust in the Lord's plan for our family.
f.y.i.: Our Garage Sale raised just under $250. And we are now "that" much closer.
We ask that you continue to keep our (whole) family in your prayers.
Thank you to each one of you for your expression of love & support for our family and this amazing journey. We are blessed!!!
Sincerely,
The Fisher's
