Please consider purchasing a T-shirt to help support Tom's mission trip to Ethiopia and to help us bring home our daughter from Ethiopia. We have completed all of our dossier paperwork. We are waiting on a last CORI check for our finalized Home Study. When we get this we can apply for our fingerprinting which will result in our immigration approval. Once we have this we can submit our dossier. The last two families from our agency, that requested a 4-6 year old girl received their referral in 19 days. Please pray for the rest of these documents so we can bring our daughter home. We thank you for being a part of this journey with us! More information to come on the Mission trip. We want to thank all of our friends, Dwight Chapel, Pioneer Clubs, and Amherst Dental for all the donations for the orphanages in Ethiopia. Thank you for your support and prayers!
