Today we were reminded of God’s never failing promises! The day we thought would never come is here! We left Beijing at 5:00am and traveled to Changsha and Charis traveled to meet us at the Hunan Adoption Service Office. We met baby Charis at 3:30 today. It is amazing to know that she is now with her forever family. Debby and I feel so blessed to be able to experience this miracle. We walked into the room and she was asleep with the orphanage workers. We have spent the first few hours getting to know each other and letting her know that we are her Mommy and Daddy! God is so faithful and Charis is a little doll, she is so precious! Tuesday we have two appointments for paper work and then we spend the next few days here in Changsha before heading to the next destination to finalize the adoption. Thank you for praying! We have sensed God's peace in our lives each day during this journey.

ReplyDeleteC & D-- I don't normally cry but I was just tearing up as I read about your first meeting with Charis. God is so stinking amazing. We are so excited for you and are simply worshipping Jesus with you through this whole process. We're continuing to pray for your family of 7!!!
