Officially waiting for you

Dear Macey,
 After 11 months of paperwork, prayers and patience, we have been given a place on the waiting list. We are relieved to be moving into the next phase of this process. It is a much needed rest from the constant paper chase it has been. Worth every single bit of it, but still, we are happy for a break.  It almost feels like we are running a marathon (not that mom or dad has ever or will ever run one). We started off running strong, trying hard to put the first few miles behind us. Step after step we found ourselves making progress. Now we can settle in to the next few miles at a steady pace moving up the list a little each month. But the beautiful day that we get "that" call, I know God will breathe into us a second wind. He will have us sprinting to the finish line, where you will be waiting for us to wrap you up in our arms and celebrate the end of the race and bring you home forever!

to me
Hi Justo and Velina,
You are placed at #45 on the wait list. Now the waiting begins! At this point, our best estimate for a time frame is about 12 months before receiving a referral. Please remember this is always an estimate :) 

Can you verify with me again what age, gender, and number of children you desire? We like to confirm that at the time the dossier is mailed.

Warmly,




Annise Koops, LBSW
Africa Team
