Here is an email we recently sent out.
Friends and Family,
Hi All!!
Most of you know that we are in the process of adopting two kids from the Philippines. We began the process in February. Our home study is nearly complete and we are working on getting our dossier together to send off to the Philippine government. The wait is currently three years for a placement after all of the paperwork has been approved. We are confident that God has called us to build our family in this way and we are excited to be a part of His plan.
While we are very excited about the process of adopting, we have at times been a bit overwhelmed at the steep cost of adoption. We know that God will provide where he is guiding and with that knowledge we have peace. To help with the financial needs, we are planning a yard sale. The yard sale is set for Saturday, June 22nd from 8 am - 1 pm.
Here’s where you come in. To start off we need "treasures"!! We will be collecting ANY donations over the next several weeks leading up to the yard sale. Now is your chance to get rid of all those things you don't use and are tired of having around your house and bring them to our house! You can e-mail us to set up a time to drop your things off! Please feel free to pass this on to friends, families, and communities with which you are involved. In addition, all kinds of support are welcomed including thoughts and prayers.
