Please watch this!

My friend Cyndi sent this--she's right--get out the Kleenex. If you have a heart for adoption and don't mind shedding a few tears....this clip is for you. They also have a daughter, Malia, adopted from Taihe with us. We'll be seeing them in June at our Sea World Birthday for the girls!

I like how they talk about in the video the difference in children just "existing, or living". It is a huge difference as you think about the estimated 1.5 million orphans around the world (that includes the US. )that merely exist from day to day. Many of these survive in developing nations on mere scraps of food. The Lord has brought 3 beautiful "hidden treasures"to our house and our prayer would be to "go into all the world-bringing help, hope and the gospel" fullfilling the Great Commission to these in need. Scott and Jason leave for Haiti to do just that on June 4, however we are greatly aware that's only through God's mercy and grace on us as frail human flesh that we are able to go. We are very aware of our weakness, but very grateful for the strength only God can provide...............
