“The Oromia officials announced that they will be writing guidelines for all orphanages/adoptions from their region BUT they will not do so until after the elections in late May. No further announcements or news will be heard until after the elections.”
So this means that they will not even start reviewing the guidelines until late May. This means that children and their paperwork are not going to move anywhere until officials make a decision. We do not know how long it will take.
We will let you know when we get any new information."
So this means we will be waiting a while for a court date. But at least it's better than no news at all. I kinda figured this to be the case. They didn't want to mess with it until after the elections. Makes sense I guess that way the ones writing the rules will be able to see them through. It doesn't make it any easier on us waiting but God knows what he is doing.
On a side note we had a great meeting with our Pastor who came out to our home to visit yesterday. I have to admit I was nervous but I don't know why. growing up it was not strange to have one of our senior Pastors at our home for a bible study. it didn't take long for my nerves to be calm. He has a calming spirit about him. Makes you feel comfortable when he speaks to you. It was a good visit for our entire family. The kids enjoyed having company over as they always do.
I pray for our children here and overseas that they feel the love of Christ in their lives. For the two in Ethiopia I pray someone will tell them of his love and HE will comfort them when we can not. For my two home grown kidos I pray I can lead them on the right path and they will continue to walk it when I am gone.
