New Court Date...

It is all in God's hands, we trust and believe in that and know that it is all in God's timing, but unfortunately today was not His timing...we are not going to pass court today. The birthfather was in a car accident and was injured. He was among the less injured, but is still in the hospital. Since our agency knew that he wasn't going to be able to make it they were able to meet with the judge before courts began today to get a new court date next week. Our new court date is next Thursday, November 19th. It is a huge praise that we know the birth father was attempting to go to court. Our prayer now is the he is well enough to travel next week and that everything goes smoothly on the 19th. Thank you all for the support that you have given us and please continue to pray for Silas and his birth father's healing. We want more than anything to be with him, but this just wasn't the time.

What a strange journey this is, eh? Today's news was not at all what we expected--I'm sure you can relate.

Hoping that next Thursday is the end of this chapter for you and the beginning of another!

So sorry for this delay, but God is bigger than any distraction that the enemy can throw your way. Praise God that the birth father was not more severly injured. I pray for quick healing and that the next court day goes smoothly. And that you get your little man soon; he is precious!!!

Thank you for your kind words....hoping and praying you pass on the 19th! We could see you all over there. We are travelling the week of Dec. 7 so if you don't travel before then, please let me know and we would be happy to take and email photos...whether we can send directly or if we have to send through Gladney--i'm not sure. Anyway, all of our sincerest thoughts and prayers are with you next week....I will think of you and pray for you often!
