adoption prayer Friday #4 April 27, 2007
We are continuing to try to get a meeting with the Russian Consulate in Washington DC. We're not having much luck finding the right person to talk to. But - we are hopeful that it will happen.
We are also waiting to hear from the Russian family in Granger we made contact with. We hope to hear from them this week with an update.
...so this week, it has been a lot of waiting. Something we've grown accustomed to!
Today is the 5th Friday we are fasting and praying for favor with all the entities that we (and other families) need to overcome to bring the children waiting in Irkutsk home. Favor is the key.
By fasting, we're not suggesting we all not eat for 24 hours. Some things our friends have decided to fast include:
the Internet
dinner out
sugar
coffee
smoking
soap operas
video games
When you think about that 'thing' you are fasting, remember our prayer for favor, and say a little prayer for Anya.
This week we will be in constant prayer all day. Our fasting will be in terms of 'acting' (if that makes sense).
Our Faith and strength might not make sense to all of you. Phil 4:13 says 'For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength' - This is the strength that keeps us fighting to bring Anya home!
Looking forward to the incredible story that will come from our prayers!
Love,
Marty and Kathy
