Remember Him, Who We Celebrate This Weekend

As we prepare to celebrate the death and resurrection of our heavenly father, we take a few moments to realize how grateful we are for the wonderful savior we have that gives us hope and mercy to overcome our sins in this world.  Without the sacrifice of His body on the cross, there would be such despair and and overwhelming pressure, but through His grace, we are forgiven and set free.  

"For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins."Colossians 1:13-14 

We also praise the Lord for making it clear to us that we are to pursue International Adoption.  He has placed the right people and the right situations in our lives this year that has convicted us on no longer pursuing a foster to adopt child, but rather a child in a foreign land.  We never had a country in mind, but through the works of God, China choose us!  We know that is a special child waiting for us and can not wait to meet him/her.
