Coming Home from Haiti

Update:
There have been reports of children coming to the states from Haiti!  What a miracle, but there are still many, many more.  Little Rob and his friends are still there and needing help.  Please continue to PRAY and contact your state senators.  These children need to come home!

This past week has been full of many emotions. Seeing the earthquake in Haiti has brought back many memories of our time in China.  God's hands were definitely surrounding us and protecting us during that time. 

As I have been watching and listening to the news, I have been heartbroken for the people of Haiti, especially the children.  We have a friend, from the adoption world, that has been in the process of adopting a young boy from Haiti.  His name is Rob.  We have been praying for this little boy and all of his friends at the orphanage.  We have seen God's grace and mercy, sending help and food to these darling children.  All of these children are waiting for their families, who had no idea what was going to happen.   The US government and the President of Haiti have decided to cut the red tape and send these children home to their families.  Jen will be reunited with her son early this week.  God is so incredibly GOOD!  Thank you to everyone who has been praying for these kiddos.  Keep praying for the people of Haiti and the children who are now orphans.
