Tomorrow, we will travel to the State Capital to have all our documents (the culmination of over three months of work) apostilled. There are 21 pages to be apostilled at $10/page. The cost to Fed Ex this group of documents will be well over $100. After it has been shipped, we will wire our facilitator the $600 she needs. It's a large sum of money, but a small price to pay for family. WE have made this decision. We are ultimately responsible and are working hard to bring these boys home. However, your prayers and support and very much needed and appreciated. Maybe you're adopted. Perhaps you have a heart for the fatherless. Maybe you've always wanted to adopt, but your spouse doesn't feel the same way. Or maybe you were blessed with an amazing family (like my husband and I were) and you need an opportunity to show your gratefulness and help someone who hasn't had it so easy. Prayerfully consider buying a piece of our puzzle for $25. We are also working on a t-shirt fundraiser (using Josh's art) and an Indian Taco sale later in the month.

Want to give AND receive a tax deduction?
Mail a check made out to "Jeremiah's Hope" to us at 17559 CR 3518 Ada, OK 74820. Make no mention of our adoption on the check, simply include a note about the intent of your gift. We'll mail them to this wonderful ministry that put these boys in our path in groups of 10.
More importantly, please continue to pray for us. Pray that there are no issues with the apostilles. Pray that our precious documents arrive safely in Kiev. Pray that our dossier is well received by Ukranian officials. Pray for our family, near and far. Pray! Pray! Pray! We are so blessed by your prayers.
Blessings as you go to OKC today to get your dossier finished up!
ReplyDeleteKind of bummed. Three documents were rejected due to sloppy notary work. Josh worked to correct most of them before 5:00 today. Hoping to go back Friday for the final apostilles and to Fed Ex the whole thing. God is in control. Trying to remember that and not stress out too much. Wish they could move the capital building just a tad closer. Guess it could be worse, though.
