Our agency is working with the Children's Minister to try to reverse the adoption suspension. Our home study is complete, but because our social worker has taken almost a year to complete it, we have to update our fingerprints and our medical forms. This should take about a month.
Because of the suspension, we have been exploring what our options are. We could change countries with our agency fairly easily, but the countries that we qualify for are not ones that we are interested in. We could change to a domestic infant adoption. We have tried that before and waited 2 and 1/2 years and were never chosen by a birth mom. Or we could take our home study and go to a different agency. Last week was a very bad week for me. Looking at all of our options and not being happy with any of them. I was feeling overwhelmed and hopeless. David came home from work and said that he had a very strong, undeniable feeling from God that we should stay the course we are on. We are going to update our home study which will take a month and then decide what we should do after that. So we are continuing our fundraising efforts. I am asking for continued prayer as we wait for God to tell us our next move.
Blessings,
Melissa
