Feeling So Blessed

Jonathan and I feel so blessed to be part of a church that cares so deeply about orphan care! We had the opportunity this evening to attend an event for Chosen (see link below on right). It was an adults-only outing to Alexander’s Steakhouse in Champaign (yum!). It was great to connect with a few other individuals who have been through, are in the midst of, and who are just beginning to consider the adoption process – both internationally and domestically. It is wonderful to have that type of support at our fingertips!
We were not only excited to share where we are in the journey, but also to hear where other people are at. One of the couples, specifically, is preparing to travel to Ethiopia for their first trip in about ten days. We enjoyed hearing about their preparations and sharing in their excitement at getting to meet their beautiful child soon : ) We thank God everyday for putting people like this in our lives!
