And I’m nominating for the OVER THE TOP BLOG award to my 6 fabulous bloggin friends…
Kim, Kelly, Shawnda,Melissa, Dawn, Charisa. Their blogs may all look completely different…some update often others here and there…but the one thing I love about all of their blogs is that when you read them they are saturated with their love for the Lord. They have all encouraged me in my walk with Christ, as a mom and during my adoption journey. That definitely deserves an “Over the Top” award from me;).
*PRAYER REQUEST*
I have a prayer request concerning our adoption, and our family would appreciate…truly covet…your prayers for this. We just mailed off our I600 to the US Immigration and Services. The form basically states that the US has approved your family to adopt internationally…why this form is often referred to as “the golden ticket”;). We had NO IDEA how long processing would take, and the office recently moved to Texas and the processing time is taking LONGER than usual. Currently, it’s approximately 3 MONTHS to process. Because of this delay–our agency is saying that in the best interest of the child, referrals won’t be made until you have this form returned. The way our list is beginning to move, it’s very likely we could get a referral in this time frame. So…I’m calling upon my prayer warrior blog readers!!! I mean, I’M SERIOUSLY asking you to join me in prayer! We need a miracle here people…and from what I hear about the USCIS…it would take a miracle of prayer to get our form back BEFORE we get to the end of the referral list. Will you please join me in praying over the next couple of months that the HOLY SPIRIT will act upon this for us and this form will be expedited…that some HOW our papers will fall into the right stacks at the right times to get processed quickly. There are about 6 steps our forms must go through, and we signed up to receive updates—so I will let those of you praying with me know when it’s at each stage so we can have a HUGE party (even if it’s cheering online and lifting our hands in praise in our own homes!) when we get that form and it’s here in TIME! Join with me praying…and if you feel led to pray this with me for the next few months…please let me know so I can let you know it’s progress! I’m oddly a little thankful for this…it’s an opportunity to see the Lord work and for me to trust in Him deeper. Thank you friends.
XOXO,
Andrea
