Waiting

Right now we are in the process of waiting for approval from the government before we can begin receiving children. But in the midst of the waiting there is so much to do. There are plenty of needs in Africa so it is just a matter of knowing what our part is in it all.

We have all the bunkbeds in the rooms and have purchased the mattresses to go with them. A few of the rooms have been decorated...one infant room and two other rooms. They look great. We have lots of decorating still to do but that part is so much fun. We also decorated the bathrooms. One bathroom has a jungle theme and the other has a frog theme. They are ready.

We have been visiting a lot of churches. We are invited to speak at so many churches but we can't go to all of them...but we do go to many of them. This Sunday we are going to a church in Arusha. Melissa is speaking on her vision for the children and our part as adults in their lives. The following week we are going to Mierani and I am speaking at that church.

But in the midst of all that is going on we are still waiting...waiting for the approval...then we will have our treasures with us. We know that God's timing is perfect so we wait and know that the waiting will soon be over. :)
