Our Case is Complete!

Hi Friends and Family!

We just wanted to share the good news that the case we have been working on for the last 3 months is finally finished and is on its way the embassy in Nairobi, Kenya. We are very pleased with how it came together and are so thankful for the MANY people who did their part in gathering information for us and helping in various ways through this part of the process. 

Once it arrives in Kenya on September 9th our case worker will read through all of the evidence we have provided to help clarify the issues that arose in our case, and then they will make a decision. They could ask for more evidence at that time, give us an intent to deny (we would have to appeal their decision which would take 1 year), or they could issue us a visa and Brad would fly to Africa to bring our son home.

Please pray with us during this season of waiting to hear the embassy's decision. Please pray for our case worker Sonia as she makes the decision that will affect the rest of our lives. Please pray for peace and patience as we do not know how long it will take to hear their decision (a few weeks to a few months). Please join us in praying that the next step would be sending Brad to Africa to go tell Jonah it is time to get on a plane and come home.

We trust in the Lord's timing, in his goodness, and in his sovereignty in our lives and in Jonah's life...something we understand and depend on so much more now than we ever did before we started this adoption.

Thank you all for your support of all different kinds that God has used to encourage us so much, especially on really hard days during this process. We hope to have good news to share soon!

Thank you all!
