Say "YES!" to God's call. When He calls, He always enables.

please pray
The first call you want to get in the morning is not the one that says..Please pack in a hurry we are trying to get you on a flight to arrive before the typhoon hits (why not wait until after the typhoon hits, is my thought?)...packing..
Sorry I wasn't more clear...we left the place where we got China's approval (Newark ,NJ) and have flown to the place where the US Consulate will give us their approval (I've been saying Louisiana but its more like Orlando - just inland from Hong Kong where the typhoon has already hit land)we will be here five days...
Serendipity : the discovery of something wonderful that you were not looking for or expecting
Simon
This is Simon who will turn 11 this spring.
2011
This boy with the adorable dimple, lives in Xinjiang, which is somewhere near Kazakstan and Mongolia. He will turn 10 before we meet him.
Fall 2010
2011
Last year we added two more children to our family ! We brought home Dominic, the little boy we first met when visiting Cheryl in 2006 in Yunnan and also Rosemary, a little girl who lived in Guangxi. Nellie, Rosie and Dominic will soon turn 12 so we have virtual triplets and Andy ,9.
We have had such fun with our new kids, that we are going to China for a fourth time! This year we will bring home two boys ages ten and eleven, who will fit nicely (we hope) in the middle of our kids. They currently live in Xi'an,Shaanxi and Shehezi, Xinjiang. I thought we went traipsing all over China the other times we were there, but those trips will totally pale next to the amount of country we will cover this time. I know Someone must be laughing at the way He is stretching this 'reluctant traveler'.
Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord whom you serve. C0l 3:23,24
2014-Jerry and I have been married 38 years. We are currently parents of 15, and soon to be 17, children. The first 8 are self supporting adults :) with only Ariel , the youngest of our first nine, still in college and living at home. After raising our first 9 children we thought we were finished until God took us on a serendipitous adventure that led to the adoption of 6 more children, 5 from China. That story is covered at andyweiwwright.blogspot.com .

What about the Embassy...was all the paperwork completed?
are you flying out of China completely or just where you are right now?
