Pray for the J family

Would you all mind praying for a friend of mine and her family? They've been in the process of adopting a daughter from the Ukraine as long as I've known them.

About 4 or 5 weeks ago the family traveled to the Ukraine. It's been up and down - back and forth...but yesterday they had another appointment and were able to choose a daughter. They will now be traveling to the other side of the Ukraine to meet her. They will meet her on Sunday. There is still a lot of details and paperwork that must be completed. Mr. J will need to come home shortly as his leave time is ending.

Please pray that God will bless their remaining time in the Ukraine, that they'll have safe and easy travels, that details will go smoothly for them from here on out so that maybe they can all come home at the same time. And then for all the issues of adding a new blessing to their family....and they are also waiting for a military assignment.

I'm pretty excited that they are about to have their daughter in their arms.

How exciting! I can't even imagine all that would go into adopting a little one.

Praying for the J family. I remember when a family from our church in Heidelberg adopted from China - it was a lengthy process and one I was privileged to be a part of - I wrote one of their reference lettters
