Confusion

We got some not so great news via email today: the DRC has decided to continue its suspension of exit visas until they create and vote into law new adoption requirements. They are looking at this possibly happening in July. 

I wish that I was lying.

Many of you may not be religiously following the adoption drama in the DRC like we do. What this means is the 300 + children that have been adopted by US families since last September and are unable to leave the country will be stuck there until at least July. I can't even imagine how hard this is for those families and their little ones. 

What this means for our family is that we need to start praying hard about whether or not we are to continue pursuing an adoption from the DRC or if God has something else for us. As difficult as this is for us, we need to be open to a change if that is what God would have us do. 

Please join us in praying for wisdom in our decision as to what country God has called us to. We are confused and pleading with God to show us a glimpse of his plan, and feel overwhelmed with all that is transpiring.
