Frustrating Day

JUNE 15

Today was frustrating to say the least.  We updated yesterday saying how excited we were because we got our 171h and that meant we could send our documents to Ukraine hopefully today or tomorrow.  So, we went to Atlanta today to get all of documents certified (this is required to send it to Ukraine). 

 Well, they could not certify our documents because a lot of them still needed things or were notarized wrong.  We got most things done, but the sad news is that one form will not be able to get done until Monday.  This is bad because we are supposed to fly out Saturday to Colorado for our Crusade summer assignment.  I (Rachel) will have to stay back and change my flight (expensive) and get eveything done by myself next week. 

All that to say, we are VERY discouraged.  Please pray for us that we would continue to trust the Lord with this.  On another note, we need your prayers too for the financing of this adoption as well as our general support with Crusade.  We have to send some of the adoption expenses in the next few weeks and we have to pay for our summer expenses with Crusade all at the same time.  We're not sure how it's going to happen.  We need to trust the Lord with this as well, but it is not easy. 

We hope to update you with some positive information soon. Thank you for all your prayers!
