Good News!

Received Good News that our dossier arrived in Ukraine and is in the process of being translated by our Power of Attorney. Igor said so far everything looks good. Keep praying that it stays good.

Dossier headed to Kyiv

I received an e-mail today from Laurel (our agency) and she was pleased to let me know that our dossier has been sent to our Power of Attorney in Kyiv in order to review our paperwork and have in translated. This process will also let us know if all of our paperwork has been properly done. If not, then we will fix if needed. Our prayer is that all will be good! Join us in praying that Igor (Power of Attorney) will find no mistakes. I will keep everyone updated with info as we receive it. Have a Great evening!

It Arrived!

That last piece of paper arrived in the mail today! Praise God! All paperwork has been sent off to God's Waiting Children and then to Ukraine. Our submission date is not until October 14, so now we wait to see what happens next. My prayer is that the papers will be submitted before the date but not sure. We wait and let God work once more. He has been so amazing in blessing our family during this journey-we can't hardly sleep at night.

Praying......

Praying for one more piece of paper to come back from being apostilled. It should be here on Monday. Then all papers to our agency and off to Ukraine. WooHoo!

Our Sunday School class begin planning the hamburger fundraiser for our adoption. God is so Good!!!

We Stand in awe of you!

I Stand I Stand in Awe of you. Holy God to whom all Praises due-I stand in awe of You!
As Kirk and I stand in our kitchen tonight we are amazed about how God is faithful to our family. We also are amazed how God keeps placing people in our path to donate to our financial needs during our adoption process. As we stepped out in faith and following God's will for our lives, we never imagined how God was paving the way for this adoption. We never could grasp how all this was happening but we knew that we had to be obedient to God and follow His will for us to adopt. Boy, are we glad we did!

We would like to say Thank You to our church family that have been praying for us and helping us with donations along the way. Words can not express the love and joy that we have in our hearts for all of you. Thank You! What a witness you have been to our family. Our God is an Awesome God!

Amazing God!

I spoke with our agency tonight and I can't believe that we are one paper away from sending off our dossier. God is Good! God is our provider! I can't believe that the time to go to Ukraine is growing closer everyday. We are praying for the child/children that God has for our family. We pray for his protection daily. We pray that God just keeps His protective hands around him or them. There is no limit to what God can do!

God is on time all the time!

I am sure that you have times in your life that you wonder if you really are following God's direction in your life---well, everytime we have that doubt God is always on time to let us know that everything is working out according to His will for our family. We just received our paperwork back from having it apostiled for our dossier. Of, course there are a few changes that we have to fix but nothing major. We should have it completed with the changes within a week and then it will be sent to Ukraine in order to get our date to go. How Wonderful!

Along with the mail today, God laid it on some peoples hearts to donate to our adoption. That means we are closer to having the remaining funds needed for our adoption. It doesn't matter if it's $5.00 donated or $5,000.00 donated each dollar is going to play an important part in a child's life. All that have donated and prayed for our family will be a vital part in our child's life. We Thank all of you for donating and praying for us. Please continue to donate and pray for us during this time. If you would like to make a monetary donation please do so by sending it to our church (Fair Park Baptist Church, 4412 White's Ferry Road) in our name or to our adoption agency (God's Waiting Children, Inc.) in our name (Kirk & Sherrie Albritton).

Continue to keep up with our journey. More to come later.
