Hello Dear Friends and Family
WOW! DRUMROLL PLEASE.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
Silas Jeff Tugwell is coming HOME!
Noel posted this morning because I was away from the computer all day, but now I get to share our news!
Around 10:00am this morning we received an email from Mr. Bannis. Our immigration has been approved!
He indicated that his office would be forwarding our paperwork to the VISA office immediately. The VISA office has already emailed requesting an appointment this week with our Orphanage! We are overjoyed! Lily asked if we could go today....we will go this weekend as planned and we will return with Silas. My face hurts from smiling and my ear hurts from all the phone time:) I haven't had much time to call people personally - please know that you ALL are important to us and ALL of your prayers for our family are being answered. THANK YOU for caring about us!
We love you all and will keep you posted.
Family pictures coming soon!
I can't use this key enough !!!!!!!!!
JoyFULLY ~

Lori,
I just knew that God would not let you arrive in Haiti without this whole thing worked out.
How do we know? Because He just ROCKS! What a way to start the week! Kiss those sweet boys for me, too! I hope you bought cheetos for your little man! Remember he likes to eat them right out of the bag! haha
Loves and hugs and tears to you gal!
His grace NEVER stops amazing me!
Lori, Noel & Lily!
I am rejoicing with you all! I'll be praying for your safe trip to Hati and a smooth transition to Silas.
God is indeed good, and mighty to move mountains.
I hope the next days to traveling pass quickly hopefully the preparations needed will help the time pass quickly!
May God Bless you and keep you
May he make His face to shine upon you and give you (the whole Tugwell Family) peace.
blessings,
Andrea Fast

Congratulations! What wonderful news. I have been hoping and praying that everything would work out for Silas to be able to come home with you. God is so good!
Do you have any updates on Louis? Any idea how much longer until he gets to come home too?
Have a wonderful trip!
Much love,
Jennifer Castaneda
