My sweet friends the Underwood's

I just got an invite to join a fan page on Facebook...and I was totally surprised...

A very sweet family at our church has begun the adoption process for a little girl from Ethiopia.  What a wonderful plan God has blessed!!

To follow their adoption process, read Becca's blog HERE.  They will be selling beaded bracelets during the month of March to help raise funds for $20.00. 

God is the ultimate Father, and to the 147 million across the world that are orphans, He is pouring out His love.  Families (including Justin's brother) have opened their homes to these children.  I have 3 nieces that have been transformed by adoption.  Natasha and Anya were both in orphanages in the Ukraine and Anna is from here in the United States.  Natasha was nearing the age where she would have literally been out on the street as a young teenager, Anya has severe Spina Bifida (and since joining our extended family, has had 1 leg amputation and had gained a purple - specially made - wheelchair!).  Anna was in a situation where her mother was unable to care for her, and her grandparents were aging.  God picked my brother and sister in law to be her permanent mommy and daddy. 

Always be ready for God's urging.  You may feel that your family is complete, but He may have bigger plans for you!!
