Prayer, article and general comments

I am amazed at the people our Lord surrounds us with. Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read this blog, pray for our children, and just ask how we are doing.
Today I am going to point you to two different blogs. The first one is
http://wacsnspiritoftruth.blogspot.com. This blog had a post today that is actually a copy of a great article posted here: http://www.theperspective.org/2009/0814200902.html
It mentions some fellow Knoxvillians.

Also please read the blog from Angel Rutledge, our case worker from Christian Adoption Services. She works tirelessly on behalf of the children in Liberia. She is going through a tough time time right now. Please pray for her daughter Angelyn. You can read more about her at her blog.

The Dentist

A while back we received a note from Leo and a medical form stating that he had a rotting molar. Since I had read that the need for dentists in Liberia was so great and that there were only 4 dentists in Liberia I didn't even think to ask if he could be seen by one.
A couple of weeks ago I woke up from a sound sleep to remember that we had been given the opportunity to provide support for Leo and Lydia. This support included medical and dental needs. I decided to ask if he could be seen by a dentist.
Today I got an email. He is going to the dentist today or tomorrow! Thank you God for your care and provision.

Please continue to pray for the moratorium to be lifted so that we can bring our children home and that many other children will be able to experience a loving family environment as well.
