Revelation 3:8 (New International Version)
I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.

The child is the beauty of God present in the world – that greatest gift to a family.” (Blessed Teresa of Calcutta)

The picture below is Jack. He was a half in hour in route to the institution for 4-7 year olds. It would have been to difficult for us to adopt him once he entered those doors. The director called and the bus turned around as soon as she got notice we were in country and accepted his referral. Praise the Lord!

  13. H Jenny. My name is Holly and I came to your blog via RR. I have a 1 year old son with Down syndrome and just through research, I found RR.

    You and your husband are an inspiration! Thank you for what you do and Praise God for putting so much love in your heart. Your children are truly blessed to have such wonderful parents.
