Noel and I were just talking about how all the support, encouragement, and prayers are felt in a real way here. Thank you.I have spent 3 full days talking with lawyers about our options and trying to get help from government officials.
We have made a decision on a good adoption immigration lawyer should we need one.
Right now this is our focus of prayer...
* Praise God for good communication between us and our agency and orphanage staff.
* Praise for the people working on finding Silas' birth mother in Haiti or in the Domincan Republic. They have been looking hard for the last few days and "think that they might be close." I don't know any details about this yet.
* Please pray that those looking for her will stay the course and be energized while they look. Pray that she will be found and this can be resolved.
* Please specifically pray for the staff in the Haiti USCIS office. Pray for a meeting between them and our orphanage director to go well on Thursday.
Thank you Thank you Thank you prayer warriors.
God is good!

You don't know me. I received your plea for prayers through a forward. I live in Mobile, Alabama and facilitate, "Circle of Love," an adoption support group. Our daughter is adopted from China too. I sent your blog site to our group and pledge prayers of intercession for your situation. In the last 6 years, since the inception of COL, I've seen more than one miracle!!!! God is faithful! Hang on...help is coming, I'm sure!

Lori,
We have been praying for Silas, His Birth Mother, and those trying so hard to find her.....
We will be especially praying on Thursday that things go well at USCIS.
Hang on,

I think the person from Mobile is a friend of my mother-in-law's -Karen Burns. Lori, Noel, Lilly, Silas, Lewis - we love you and are praying for you! We are in Dallas until tomorrow (Wed.) but Lori when I get back I would love to either go to lunch with you or bring lunch to you and just be there to support you however I can. Hugs, Heidi
Lori
Praying for you and for Silas.
We will continue to pray until your sweet little boy is home.
God will finish this, and we all will be in awe of what He does to get it done!
Hugs gal!
