Praying for a BIG miracle!!! Scroll to next post to donate.

This is URGENT, we have less than a week!!!!! We need prayer, prayer, prayer well and umm.... MONEY!!!! The Lord has literally opened the door for us to adopt not 1, not 2, but 3 beautiful sisters from Ethiopia! They are biological sisters ...and we want to keep them together. They are paper ready and currently in Ethiopia's orphanage, but as soon as we can wire the money they will be put in a Christian foster home and cared for until we go and get them. The Lord truly did a work today moving mountains with our adoption agency to tie up so many loose ends. We are willing, open and ready to receive these girls and give them their forever home. However, because of the country we literally have to get the funds in ASAP or their ability to be adopted will close to us. We need the funds, as in yesterday! This is a shocker to us, especially since we were going domestic, and already had the majority of our funds for the adoption. However, the Lord put this opportunity before us and we truly know this is so much bigger than what we are financially able to do; that if He wants us to be their Mom and Dad, HE will have to provide the funds through others. We have pictures and their medical reports and everything, but we are not allowed to post them on the internet due to the countrie's policies, but let me tell you they are beautiful!!! They are 4 year old twin girls and a 5 year old older sister according to the country. However, Ethiopia does not have birth certificates and does not recognize birthday's, so their ages could vary just a little. They are healthy, but are MOST definitely special needs, because of there being three to be adopted at one time. Please send this to everyone you know, we are needing miracles and know our God is big enough to make this happen. We have set up a link through our blog for money to be donated, however we also have Julie Bergman Schepmann that is our administrator handling donations if you would like to donate, and don't feel comfortable online. Please contact Julie via email at XXXXX, if you are willing to give. We are truly overwhelmed at this possibility and need a miracle to make this happen, and know that it's in God's hands completely. Please pray for us and pass this on to everyone, "that's us begging!" Completely in His hands, Brian and Mel Please scroll down to donate.
