I-800 Update & Last Day of the Raffle!!

Well, still no news on where our I-800 is.

Today is Day 18 since it arrived at the lockbox and we still haven't heard anything....
...and they still haven't cashed our second child fee check.
which makes me a little nervous.
But!
But our agency is all over it making some calls and such on our behalf and we are hoping it will be found sometime next week.
So I'll just wait here.
Reminding myself that God is not one second late,
nor one second early.
We will meet those boys at exactly the moment He has planned it.
Ahhhh, love that.

TODAY is the last day of the raffle!! Winners will be drawn tonight at 8pm and I will post the winners tomorrow!!
We are unbelievably only $605 away from fully funding one of their $5,100 orphanage fees!
Only $605 away!!
Amazing!
It has been incredible to watch friends and strangers alike donate $10 here, $50 there, $100 here.

It
all
has
added
up
to an amazing $4,495!

Did you know that with all of your donations you are not only helping two little boys come home to their family, you are getting a chance at some prizes, but you are also providing for those left behind(which is what the orphanage donation is used for)? How great is that?!

Thank you SO, so much and if you'd like to get in on the fun and be entered to win some pretty suh-weet prizes there is still time...8pm tonight!

Thank you for being His hands and feet!

  3. Keep holding on...once they get your i800, you will be approved within 24 hours usually. They say weeks but typically is a day or 2. You know you can call the NBC, right? They are usually super, super nice!!

    Once our worker got our i800 on her desk, we were approved within hours! Praying it shows up very soon!!

    Praising God for all of His provision! He WILL provide it all, just in His timing :)
