Court was Successful, and fast! God is good!


Katya & Sophia......................................Sophia on Jonathan


A drink for parched children! .............Andri at supper.

Thank you Victor for a wonderful day. Celebration Dinner.


Natasha, our social worker, and Sergey our driver.
Our family at our special dinner after court. Thank-you for all your prayers. Our court session was faster than most, and all went well. Thank-you Jesus! I told the children that it was a miracle how fast it went, and to give thanks to God (Bog) tonight at bed time. Questions went well, except when it came to Andri, the judge really layed it on thick! He did well, and smiled through the whole thing, and she thought he was cute. The children were excited about waiting all day for court (suit) at 3pm. We went shopping after court for the orphanage, and then had a nice dinner at a little cafe above the store. While Katya, Chris, Natasha & Sergey shopped, I had the littler ones have a drink, as they were thirsty. I learned the words for son (seen), and daughter (dorchka) today, and used it freely with hugs and kisses. Tomorrow will be a fun day out with our family. Tomorrow starts the 10 day clock of waiting before we can get birth certificates, and passports. THANK-YOU for your prayers! Alesia & Chris

Pray for those who persecute you....

Matt 5:11 "Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven...."

Matt 5:44" But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of the Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.


Psalm 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear.....

Phil 4:5-9 Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy - meditate on these things.


2nd Timothy 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

We adopted 4 older siblings from Ukraine in 2010 and hope we can help.

We will share what we learn and help you when we can. There are great supports here on this page. Sometimes it's one day, moment and breath at a time. And you're not alone. Love, Alesia & Chris
