One down one to go

We had our "preliminary" hearing today and then the court scheduled our real court date for June 23rd. In addition to the School director, local childrens services, our attorney and us they will require a prosecutor to represent the children, all 3 boys and a physical representative from the SDA verse the letter to proceed for the court proceedings.

Their is a great local concern regarding the high amounts of Americans adopting in this area and since this is a different court then the other 5 families used we are facing greater difficulty.

We will be traveling home next week and will return to Ukraine a few days prior to the court date. Please continue to pray and we may have lost this battle but we still have our goal ahead. Please also pray for the boys- we have informed them of all the details but each day that goes by causes more and more doubt in their minds.

  1. Richarch & Jane, We are so sorry about this first battle being lost to the dark forces so entrenched in that part of the world. It encourages me to know that we have read ahead to the end of the book AND God wins!!!! Hang in there, I know nothing makes sense right now, perhaps it never will. None-the-less, you are both co-heirs to THE KING, not a king, but THE KING, and He will be faithful to complete the good works you have started, in His time, according to His will. Until then, God bless, J&L
