Triplets!


We received an email today about triplets that need sponsorship in Liberia. Two little girls and one little boy!

All three are tiny, about the size of a six month old. They are getting teeth and are able to sit up, but they only weigh in at about 12 pounds each.

Our sponsorship will provide money monthly for food (particularly rice and protein) as well as any medical care they need. A nurse from the hospital checks on them and a Dr. is available as well.

Adoption Article

Here is an article written by a Liberian man regarding adoption. Many of the Liberian people desire to see adoption opened again to help the children.

"Adoption, Politics and the State" by Francis Nyepon.

Added Blessing

God has blessed our family with another little one, not through adoption (yet!) but through birth. Our little one is due to arrive in March.

This week has been a busy week with four birthdays. Noah turned six years old, Jordan turned thirteen, Jonathan is fifteen and Rachel will be seventeen in a few days. Each year it is so fun to see the children grow and mature. We are all looking forward to God's blessings in our family over the next year.

Delta to offer service to Liberia

Today on the radio my son and I heard that Delta Airlines is trying to offer non-stop service to Liberia. This would be wonderful when we are ready to make our trip! Delta has stated that they are waiting for airport security to increase at Robertson Airport in Monrovia. Once security is increase Delta will begin flying into Monrovia as well as Kenya.
