Wow, what a busy week we had around here last week! Our trip to Quito and home went well. We enjoyed visiting with our good friends, and were thrilled that the audience with the judge went well. He signed the act, that legalizes the adoptions. Now we just have to wait for the paperwork to make it's way through the system. Our lawyer expects to have it by the 27th or 28th. Then we will need to get their new birth certificates and ID cards. Exciting times!!!
Saturday at the Children's Christmas party at church, we had about 60 kids and probably 25 helpers! What a blessing! Everything went well and everyone had a good time. Yesterday our services were a little done in attendance with 104, but we had a great morning. The children said the verse they had learned at the party Saturday and sang a Christmas song. In the afternoon, we had the Ladies Christmas Party, and had about 35 ladies present. Everyone had a great time, and the best of all, we had one lady accept Christ as her Savior!!!
This week, we have some presents to buy for our family, gifts to wrap and cookies to bake. Looking forward to a wonderful time with the kids. Everyone is happy to be "on vacation" from classes! (including Mom! :-)
I pray that each of you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Blessings,
Joy
