Asking for mercy

We had a chance to sit down with Claudia, GSF missionary who works with adopting families, to discuss what still needs to take place with bringing Patricia home.  We have court tomorrow, in which we are praying to receive our ruling in writing the very day.  This is something that can go either way; the judge may say to return in a few days to receive the ruling in writing, or he may give it to us tomorrow.  I don't need to spell out what we are praying for.

If we can get a written ruling tomorrow we are hoping to be able to meet with the Embassy tomorrow.  However, the passport is also delayed until we have a written ruling, and we need her passport in order to meet with the Embassy.  To add one more thing, there is a Ugandan holiday on Monday the 31st for which all offices are closed.

The God who lights up the sky both day and night has given me a strong sense that he did not bring us this far to leave us here. 

Today has been an enjoyable day.  Maren and Patricia have spent all day together playing Old Maid, jump roping and exploring the grounds.

Tonight we went to a great restaurant called Two Friends, where the atmosphere outside is almost as good as the food!

 We'll be off at 7:30am our time for a ruling appointment at 10am (2am your time).  I'll post as soon as I can afterwards.

Love,
Kim
