Yesterday I wrote a block post about the crazy journey of following Jesus that Sarah and I and our family are currently on together. You can read it here.
I awoke this morning with this thought: "This is real!" I woke up wondering at first whether this was a dream I had or if it was real. Quickly I recalled, "This is real...and super exciting!"
Sarah and I will shortly head out to the western part of North Carolina for the anticipated birth of the new baby TODAY. It's been a whirlwind to say the least.
We still ask you to pray:
- For the health of the baby and the birth mom
- For the process of finalizing the adoption
- For the preparation of our boys (who are so excited and eager)
- For the provision needed
- For safety in travel
- For Sarah and I as we get to spend time with the mom
With the quickness with which all of this took place, Sarah and I had not launched into any fundraising. We had begun saving with our own finances. But we are still only 1/6 of the way to the goal. Oh Lord, we believe! To be completely transparent, the adoption and associated costs will totally near $20,000.
We are asking MOST of all for you to pray. We don't know where this money is coming from but we know God can do it.
Some have asked how they can give. If you desire to do so, I most encourage you to give through Refuge Online Giving and select the "Refuge Adoption Fund" rather than "General Budget." You can click the donate button on this page to give now.
Thank you for standing at our wall of Jericho and our Red Sea asking God to make a way.

Hey!
We clicked on the link and it appears to be broken. It goes to a page that says "Whoops! There was a problem finding the page you were looking for...."
