An Amazing Story



A few weeks after our referral we connected through email with a Mom of a Yangxi Special Needs baby. We were hoping to visit the orphanage and check on her girl. When we got here we found out we would not be visiting the orphanage. We were disappointed since we know how important any information about our daughters is. Yesterday we developed some disposable cameras that we sent to the orphanage in a care package. When we saw the pictures we recognized the baby Eliza was with. It is the little one whose Mom we had connected with earlier!!!! I am just bursting with amazement at our Lord and how much he loves us! He is definitely a God of details. Please join us in praying for little Sophie and her parents as they wait to travel to their daughter. What a joy to be able to someday reunite Eliza with her playmate. Please pray also for their Nanny. May she come to know the love of our Lord if not already.

Hi! I'm not sure you will get this message since I'm leaving it on such an old post, however, I am Jia's mom - Jia was born June 9, 2007 and adoption day was May 7, 2008. Jia was at Yangxi SWI too. Is it possible for us to connect? I'd love our girls to know about each other since they are so close in age and spent their first months together. My email address is tandbeth@verizon.net. Also 0 I would love to see the pictures you received back from the SWI in hopes we may see early pics of Jia. My husband travelled to the SWI and we would be happy to share those pics with you!
