Ever seen a sign on the road announcing that your tax dollars are being spent for road construction?
Consider THIS a sign that your donation dollars are at work for family construction!
Praise be to God, our home study has been completed! Now we can now apply for some big grants to pay the major costs of our adoption.
We have come this far thanks to prayer, time, energy and funds donated by friends and family, and we are so grateful. Here is a breakdown of some recent costs we've been able to pay:
$850 final home study payment
$60 for six official letters verifying our bank accounts
$40 for two background checks at the local sheriff's office
$107 for four copies each of our birth certificates
$30 for three copies of our marriage certificate
Next, we will send a check to US Immigration for $890...but guess what!? Lifesong for Orphans will pay that out of our matching grant fund, which, at the moment, totals $1,564! This is thanks to donations from individuals and our church. The fundraisers have helped a lot, too!
Please pray with us as we continue to gather documents for the dossier (almost there!) and the grant applications.
It's a good thing the home study, the dossier and the grant application require a lot of the same documentation! Not that we're into killing birds with stones or anything. :)
Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
