     As I write this, our three children are building a tent in the living room out of sofa cushions, and I am reminded how much our lives have changed in these past seven years.  Our adoption journey to China began in the fall of 2005.  My husband and I were both teachers at a Christian school in North Carolina and had struggled with infertility for eleven years.  We decided to adopt from China as the process was relatively quick and we knew other families in the community who had adopted wonderful little Chinese girls.  Our paperwork was logged into the Chinese system in August of 2006 and we expected to go at any time.  However, the adoption wait inexplicably lengthened.  As each new school year began, I would say to myself, this will be my last year of teaching, and next year I will stay home with my little girl.  But as months lengthened into years, my dreams of being a mother faded.   I watched my students graduate, get married and have children while I waited for my fortieth

God has given us a monumental vision and goal to raise $80,000 to help construct a new building for Casita Adonai in Guatemala City.    We’re answering His challenge with a fundraising campaign called “Hope Grows”.   The task ahead of us is HUGE!   But! We know that with Christ, all things are possible.   And, the Lord is already showing us that He provides where He guides .    In the past week some exciting developments have taken place!   The Church in Guatemala City has committed to join us in raising the funds.   In fact, the ladies in our new Sewing Ministry each donated $40 to the campaign!   This is amazing considering these ladies do not have jobs and if they did, they would probably earn less than $2 a day!   It reminds us of the Scripture in 2 Corinthians, where Paul tells the church in Corinth how generous the suffering church in Macedeonia had been with their offerings, saying, “ I n the midst of a very severe tri
