Big News!

So if you read the previous post we ended with a prayer request and said we would update when God answered.  We were waiting for our official approval from China and were praying to receive it before Blair left for Mexico.  Once again God had the perfect timing and we received email news on Tuesday stating we had received approval and then received the hard copy today. Plenty of time to sign and return before Blair leaves for Mexico on Monday!  The approval came just 40 days after all our paperwork was officially logged in in China.  The amazing thing about 40 days is that one of our prayer warriors mentioned a few weeks ago that God was saying 40 days was significant!  Love how God works!

Also for those of you following along on our financial journey to bring the boys home, we have big news in that area as well.  We have been blessed by your giving and have reached the $4,000 mark, which means we will get our matching grant from Lifesong!  We received this blessing within hours of receiving our official approval from China and the timing was again so clearly God designed.

With the big news this week comes the excitement of knowing travel is coming soon.  Our agency says to expect to travel within 9-12 weeks.  We mentioned before that at the beginning of October is a big National holiday in China so there will be no traveling during that time.  If we get travel approval to go in 9 weeks we would be able to go before the holiday.  If not we will travel in 12 weeks after the holiday.  We are praying for 9 weeks, but trusting again in God's timing!
