The Meeting FINALLY Happened!

A huge thank you to everyone who has been faithfully praying for the adoption meeting in Liberia. It finally happened today and from all initial reports was a huge success!

A great big thank you to the new Minister of Justice, Honorable Christiana Tah for hearing the cries of the children and listening to those of us trying to care for the children inspite of the Ministry of Health.

I haven't confirmed everything yet, but it appears at this time that a new adoption committee will be formed to develop in writing policies and procedures that will govern adoptions. This will be presented to the President with a recommendation that adoptions resume. Praise the Lord!!!

Please continue to pray for all those on the front lines in Liberia. The truth was heard today! Praise God! Now those who heard it have to act on what was heard. Pray that they choose not to sin as it says in James 4:17, "anyone who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it sins."

Pray that the children waiting, many for as long as three years now, can come home to the families waiting for them...loving them this whole time and not giving up, but standing on faith and walking by faith and not by sight!

Praying with you!
