Working and Waiting

The last month and a half has been full of more paperwork. We have been applying for grants and focusing on fundraising ideas. We are planning on having a rummage sale in March to raise money. Details TBA! Keep this in mind if you have stuff around the house you are cleaning out. We are waiting for our approval letter from USCIS. We hope to see it in the mail within the next 2-4 weeks. Once that comes in we can submit our paperwork to Ukraine,and then we wait for a travel date. We are praying for God's timing in all this. He knows the right time for us to travel considering Tim's work schedule. Waiting and wondering is hard, but we trust God is in control. Lately, for me it has been a moment by moment process of learning to depend on God every second by giving Him my fears, questions, and asking for his help. He has been so faithful!

  1. Hi, I made a button for Alina so people could put her on their blogs to help you in raising funds.

    Please email me, lucille@poppiesblooming.co.uk and I'll re-send the code for it. As it is, no one can 'grab this' because it is set to come here and the button and code aren't here lol!

    She's beautiful!
