Some of you will remember that I (Kirstin) am not very good
at making fingerprints…
Well…
We received a phone call tonight that was followed by cheering and happy dances!
We have been assigned an Immigration Officer AND she reports that
all 3 of our fingerprints cleared!
(Since Becca is over 18, she is also required to be fingerprinted by USCIS.)

As we wait to receive our I800a approval from Immigration by mail,
we are working away at grant applications from Show Hope and Lifesong for Orphans.

We are really looking forward to completing our Dossier and being
“DTC” (or Dossier To China).
In the meantime, we try to make a little progress every day while still being truly present to those who are already here at home, and
remember the big picture, taking heed of this reminder…

But be sure to fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart;
consider what great things he has done for you.
1 Samuel 12:24
