Prayers please

We just received an email letting us know that Caleb has been put in foster care and is no longer available for adoption. Please pray for us as we grieve the loss of a son we will never get to meet and hold. We know that God is in control and we are leaning on Him right now. Everything is still moving forward with Jackson so please continue to pray for that as well.

Thank you,
Rachel

    Aw man! I am so sorry. We lost our Russian child a little over a year ago. It hurts. Its a very real loss. God turned our mourning into joyful dancing by bringing us a son, but I still think of her and her life over there.

    Be blessed

    Thank you all for your prayers and encouragement! We are still morning, still praying and still looking forward to where God will lead us from here! Jackson's orphanage will have some other kiddos cleared for international adoption in the next few days...maybe one of them will become a Golden too? Pray for clarity in what we hear from God....Thank you!
