Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. James 1:27

Answered Prayer

I have been really struggling over the past few days. We haven't received a lot of donations so far and I had begun to be overcome with doubts. Maybe this wasn't the path we're supposed to be on. Maybe we had just got caught up in our own emotions and made a commitment to do something we knew we would not be able to carry out. What are we going to do if we can't raise the funds needed to bring these kids home?
You can not imagine how unprepared we were when we arrived at church Sunday to find that our prayers had been answered! Bill & I were met by one of our best friends who is also a member of our Sunday school class as soon as we arrived to church. I thought she would burst before she could get the words out! Our Sunday school class, the Refuge class @ Frazer, is paying the entire amount of the cost for our home study! All the worrying, all the doubts - gone in an instant. There are no words to express our gratitude. Thank you just doesn't seem big enough. We are totally humbled. We do not deserve such an extravagant gift.
Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU Refuge Class!

Oh yeah, we now have names for all 4 children. Oleg, Artem, Vlad, and Leana. We are so happy we can now refer to them by names and not just Oleg, Artem, and his 2 siblings!
