AND We got a MATCHING GRANT from Lifesong for Orphans that will help to cover the cost of our adoption. God is providing for us and our boys!! We are trusting that God will work and provide for adoption expenses in incredible ways that we don't even understand.
Here is what we wrote on our Lifesong for Orphans site:
"Our family will be growing from 4 to 6 in just a few short months, and we are trusting God to provide financially, emotionally and spiritually and with His strength. Please pray for us, and if you would like to help us bring our boys home, we would be very grateful! We have been saving for a few years, but in having faith to say ‘Yes’ to Judah as well as Josiah, we took a big step of faith that God would provide! We were financially prepared for one child, but not for two, and yet we know the Lord is leading and has already provided lots of clothes, another highchair, a car seat and a crib mattress. It has been so neat to see the Lord move and take care of orphans through you! When we consider our plane tickets, orphanage fees (about $5,200 for each boy), hotel, visas, plane tickets for the boys, and our agencies fees we are still short about $15,000. We know that is a lot, but we are confident that this is where God is leading.
Lifesong is offering us a matching grant, and will match any donations up to $3,000! Donations can be mailed directly to Lifesong or can be processed online for a 3% fee."
We know He is faithful! Perhaps you are not called to adopt, but we are all called to take care of orphans and widows, and here may be a wonderful opportunity to bless these two boys, and us as a family! Thank you for loving our family!
We know God will provide as He wills it, and we do not at all want anyone to feel pressure or to give beyond what they are able. Again, with every dollar donated up to $3,000, Lifesong will match it!
