Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.

Isaiah 1:17


Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to care for orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

James 1:27

We're going to Kiev!!

Last night, or maybe early this morning we received a call from our adoption facilitator in California--we need to be in Kiev, Ukraine Monday December 6, or very early on the 7th for our meeting with their "SDS", (not knowing the translation for the acronym, we'll just call them children services).  This is the visit where we get permission to travel through the country and visit Dema's orphanage.  Now that we have a date, the representative from the adoption agency will be sharing it with the orphanage director, who can share it with Dema.  5.5 weeks and counting!!!
