Russian Adoption Ban-Please Pray!
#31
Hello Taylor Smile

I signed it and posted it on Facebook as well! I will have my family and I praying for all of you. I live in North Carolina too!

I know things will work out just in God's plan, but I will pray that His plan will be bringing those brothers of yours home! Smile

I had already signed the petition before I read this post. I'm only sorry I can't sign it again. I'll be praying for your family TayTay.

There is another petition on the same site asking the government to "Exempt Hobby Lobby from the healthcare mandate requiring them to provide abortion-causing drugs to employees." My mother works for Hobby Lobby, and her store got a letter from the owners stating that they refuse to offer abortion-causing drugs to their employees. They would rather pay the $1.3 million a day fee than offer abortion causing drugs as part of their insurance coverage. Please sign the petition.

I signed the Hobby Lobby one too! Wow. That is a lot of money for a day fee. Ooh that makes me so mad! How can the government charge money for freedom!? Good for them to take such a stand!

Hi Taylor,

Is there any update on this situation? I am so sad to hear about it. I wish I had heard about your family's situation earlier, but I hadn't been on the forum for a while. I am praying for you and your family, Thad and Luke, and the 44 other children.

May God bless you and your family.

Hi LaceyLady!

No, there is not any "new" information...honestly, it's not looking good. But, I know the One who can do the impossible, so we are just trusting Him.

"For with God nothing shall be impossible..." (Luke 1:37)

ALL adoptions from Russia will stop, as of January 2014. (It's the new law.) So, we will have to adopt them, before then. Russia is moving slowly in saying what they will allow and what they won't...so, we are on a time-crunch. There isn't really anything we can do, except wait and see (and pray)! They have allowed those who have been to court (2 trips to Russia), to finialize their adoptions. We have only been on our first trip. It is so sad for the children...

Thanks for asking! We appreciate your prayers...

Praying for peace and calm for your family as you go through this... I know it must be stressful for you all!

Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21
