Saturday, September 19, 2009

Our facilitator came over to discuss the adoption process and how the children would be presented to us. Later, he took us sightseeing all around the area where we are staying. We did this on foot for three hours. By the way, we have not seen any obese people here. The food in the grocery store is very good and much like the ones in the U.S. The only fast food establishments we have seen were two McDonald's. After our long walk, we went back to the apartment to rest.

  2. It's so exciting to see how God is working in your behalf already! I check the blog 2-3 times a day just to see if you've posted anything else. Please know that you are being covered in prayer. Along with our personal prayers, you were prayed for in Sunday School this am as well as in the morning worship service.
    Kimberly, Will and Savannah Howard joined our Parkview Family this am. This precious family is such an asset to our church.
    Also, pray for the Eubanks family. Ms. Emmie went to be with the Lord on Friday morning. The funeral will be Monday at 11 am.
    Love you so.... and can't wait for the next bit of news!!

  6. I heard some things at church tonight that are not here. Was not clear, hoping you will post soon! Love you. I have been out of town with Warren, Sybil and Miss Ruby and we prayed for you all every day we were gone. It was so cool to hear the 3 of them remind us all from time to time to pray for the 3 of you. Carol says to pray for the 4 of you?? More please!!!

  10. Hey!!

    I have been looking at their blog and have tried multiple times to send a comment. Neither Mack nor I can figure it out. Probably need to get Brooke to do it. Anyway, would you please let them know how excited we are for them and are praying for them during this time. OR, if you can help me figure out how to send it myself, that would be great. I was very pleased to read that I was not the only one having trouble.

    Blessings,

    Jacque Morris
