Dossier is IN!

Kreg and I got our fingerprints in the mail on Wednesday (early!!) so Friday I got them notarized, went to the Secretary of State and got 28 state seals put on our paperwork, went to kinkos to make four copies of our whole dossier and then over to corporate office to hand deliver everything. Our dossier is DONE!! This will be sent to the Ethiopian embassy then back to corporate and then to ETHIOPIA! It will take a few months but it's so relieving to have this paperwork done. Ahhh......

Great News!

I copy and pasted this memo from Bethany Christian Services about another adoption agency becoming available in Ethiopia. This will hopefully make our "wait time" shorter! How awesome is this!?!?

As we start the New Year, the Ethiopia team would like to acknowledge the Lord’s blessing during the past year. We would like to let you know that the Ethiopia program has expanded through our partnership with local agencies in Ethiopia.

The Ethiopia Country Director, Ato Mekonnen, signed an agreement with a reputable orphanage in November 2009. The orphanage is called Help for the Needy. Help for the Needy Development Association has branch offices throughout Ethiopia.
