MOWCYA

We sent our care package with another family last week and yesterday she sent me pictures of the girls opening their care packages.  She said that the girls carried their bags around all day showing everyone their photo book.  It was so nice to see updated pictures.  They are absolutely beautiful girls! 

We are currently waiting for a Ministry of Women, Children, and Youth Affairs (MOWCYA) date from the court.  These dates are issued sporadically and America World has seen MOWCYA dates being issued ranging from late January to early March.  Because of this, it is very difficult to predict when our family's MOWCYA date will occur.  We need the recommendation letter from MOWCYA before we are issued a court date.  Once this letter is received, we are told we should be prepared to travel about 10 days later. 

Prayer requests: 
1.  Timely MOWCYA date and recommendation letter (we are praying for January, not March) :)
2.  Organization on my part to gather donations, prepare for travel.
3.  Health and wellness for our family. 
4.  Provision for our girls at the Transition Home.  (I am praying for their emotional, spiritual, and physical well being, as well as protection.)

Once we know we are traveling, I will post our schedule. 

Donation list to come.  :)

  1. Your cousin Sarah Schultz is a good friend of mine and sent me your information the day before we left on vacation a couple of weeks ago. She shared your latest prayer requests, and please know we will be praying. We brought home our two youngest through AWAA in Jan 2010. Can't wait to follow along on your journey!
