Yesterday we went to a picnic hosted by our adoption agency, All God's Children. Heather Radu, the founder of AGCI flew from Oregon to attend the picnic and briefly spoke to us. She spoke to us about the vision of AGCI, which I think is just amazing, and why we chose them as an agency. This is their vision statment, and should be the vision of all believers: "God has called us to passionately serve the world's forgotten children by creating hope through life-changing ministries." Wow!!
I have to admit, it was a little hard to be among all the adoptive families knowing that we have a son we can't bring home for another few months. People kept asking us where Grace Caroline and Drew were from!!
Not our son... he belongs to some friends.
This is our friend Dan and his son Sam. They have been waiting for their daughter to come home from Guatemala for almost a year -- it was really hard for him to be there yesterday.

We all saw the POWER in prayer and fasting when we as a blog family took a day to do this for the hold on some of the Ethiopia adoptions.. SO I feel that we as a blog family need to do this for Margot (Julies' mom) SO please join me this Friday July 25,2008 for a day of fasting and prayer for Margots healing!!!!
