Prayer & Fasting

A huge "Thank You" to all who are praying & fasting with us this Monday morning from 7am - noon!

God’s will to be done & His name to be made great!
Oh, magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together! … Let those who delight in my righteousness shout for joy and be glad and say evermore, “Great is the LORD, who delights in the welfare of his servant!”
Ps 34:3, 35:27

Prayer for Baby Martin:
Father of the fatherless and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation.
Ps 68:5
▪swift processing of this child’s paper work in Ethiopia
▪for God to reveal the identity of this child to us…soon
▪for the spiritual, physical, emotional and mental health of our child
▪spiritual & physical peace for our child’s birth family
▪immediate trust & bonding with us

Prayer for Paper Work:
From where, then, does wisdom come? God understands the way to it, and he knows its place. For he looks to the ends of the earth and sees everything under the heavens.
Job 28:20-24
▪our home study update & I-171H immigration renewal to be finalized before we travel
(which could be any time from Mid-Dec to Mid-Jan)
▪favor with Ethiopian judge(s) in court proceedings

Prayer for Finances:
Behold, to the LORD your God belong heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth with all that is in it.
Duet 10:14

▪for us to be good stewards with our income, as we make personal financial decisions & continue to save for this adoption
▪we are in the process of applying for grant monies…favor on our applications


We are confident that our God “is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think” while we eagerly continue to learn more about His character, sovereignty & love for His Children as He grows our family!
