Mark and Lanae left today for the long trip to Ghana ... to bring home 3 precious children.
Please pray ...
... that they would be SAFE as they travel.
... that they would make all of their CONNECTING FLIGHTS.
... for God's PEACE and PROTECTION for their 5 older children at home.
... for a BLESSED meeting with their 3 new children.
... for an EXPEDITED processing of their I600 form. One of their children's health is failing due to heart problems, and they need to get her here asap. Children's Hospital in Seattle has agreed to provide free heart surgery when she gets home.
... for Comfort's HEALTH, that she would be healthy enough to make the trip home.
... for Brian, Josephine, and Comfort as they begin the BONDING process with their new mom and dad. (Brian and Josephine are siblings. Comfort has been at the same orphanage as the other two.)
We are also THANKING God for ...
... the financial provision for the adoption.
... the willingness of Children's Hospital to provide care for Comfort.
... the last minute provision of a free house to stay in in Accra.
... the work of a local Senator's office to get the I600 expedited at the U.S. Embassy.
Thank you so much, for joining me in prayer this week as I pray for Mark and Lanae and the children. I'll keep you posted when I hear of other prayer requests or praises.
Our prayers are with them. Such a wonderful family and these children are so sweet. Comfort has such a wonderful spirit about her and there have already been so many miracles in her life. It will be such a blessing to have this family together at home.
ReplyDeleteI spoke with Kingsley a bit ago and the Pearsons have arrived safely. He will take the kids to meet them in Accra first thing in the morning. I'll keep you updated!
ReplyDeleteI wish I were there to witness their meeting!
I love Lanae, she was an answer to my prayers, and the new Pearsons children are the sweetest!
Praise God for three more found children and two more willing parents!
