We have had much to celebrate and be thankful for this week. First, we got to see Family 1 off to Moscow from the airport. Pastor Andre prayed a blessing over Mocksim (Alek), Scott and Lynn. It was a special moment to see this family complete and on their way to Moscow to finalize their adoption at the US Embassy.
Second, the Bergstrom family had a successful court appearance yesterday! Praise God!! They are now in their 10 day wait and will get to pick up their son on Christmas Day, what a Christmas present!
Last night we had Celebration Dinner- Part 3 at the Dragon Chinese restaurant. After about 15 minutes of trying to read the Russian menu we managed to order a great meal. We had fried rice, pelmenie (fried Russian dumplings), beef stir fry, calamari, chicken soup and sushi--and lots of Pepsi.
We were supposed to visit Luke today, but our court rep didn't call the director until last night and she said they are very busy today and cannot accept us. So we will visit tomorrow instead. We are getting ready to go see the new church that is under construction with Pastor Alexi and Pastor Andre and then we are going to Kirill and Nadia's for a home cooked meal.
We'll post more soon---stay tuned!

3 days to go. Ew will continue to pray for a smooth transition. At least only a few problems. It will be a little scarey for Luke. Last night at church the prayers were for his adjustment and safety for all. Exciting!!!!!!!! Love you all. Love Mom& Dad Oh Mark-Dad will have prices by tomorrow, he thinks. The factory needed to be called on some.
Hello Threesome! Sue chatted with Pattie today and brought her up to date. She was so happy for you and that the power of The Holy Spirit has been with you all the way. She was also sharing this news with associates so you can add God's people in Wichita to the list. We have an awesome God!
