This is a very significant week for our adoption.  There’s a court date for a few other adopting families scheduled on Friday, September 15.  They’re in the same adoption process as we are, and the orphanage is predicting that the judge’s response to their case will probably be a fair indication of his future response to other families (like us) who are hoping to have court dates scheduled soon.  There are a lot more details than this, but this is the bottom line.  As always, we would appreciate your prayers.

The king’s heart is like channels of water in the hand of the LORD;
He turns it wherever He wishes.
– Proverbs 21:1
