We just received an e-mail from our agency stating that it is a strong possibility that the Ethiopian courts will close from August 22 - September 30. The last court date that a family reported receiving was August 17, so that means that they are getting really close to not handing-out any more dates for time before the closure.
As I posted yesterday, we are frustrated in that our agency was going to try to get a court date set on July 15 but we still haven't heard anything. I have e-mailed our family coordinator and am waiting to hear back as to what happened on the 15th. I am so anxious to travel as I want to make sure that Baby Girl gets all the medical attention that she needs plus I simply want to love on her.
We know that our baby will not spend one day longer in ET than God has ordained, so please pray that God will give us peace during this wait - and a fast, successful court date if that's what He has planned ;) .

Erica, I'm going to pray fervently that you hear good news this week on your court date. I can't even imagine what a whirlwind this has been on your family and your mommy heart. Praising God for your dedication and willingness to obey God's callings. Adoption radically changes your life... I know you will never be the same.
The best is yet to come!
Praying!!

Praying for you to get and pass court sooner than expected, and definitely before the courts close. Praying for you to be at peace as you wait, as well. Keep persevering. He has a huge blessing planned for you!

Erica and Reed family,
Continiuing to pray along with so many others for a quick and successful court with travel before the closing of court. Praying for your peace and strength and for your precious baby girl that is waiting- that she would grow strong physically and in faith.
"As for God, His way is perfect; The Word of the LORD is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him." Psalm 18:30
Love and hugs and prayers,
Debi
