2 Timing Out Teens, 2 Adoptions & The Mission Teams Eastern Europe Adventure!


Here is the crazy mission team God so perfectly put together heading to Eastern Europe to minister to orphans the love of Christ and love on them. We cannot thank each and every person who helped our team get there to serve!!!  A big thanks to Hope Community Church (www.gethope.net) and Redline United (www.redlineunited.org) for sponsoring the trip.


On the team trip James and Nicole met.  Nicole has such a heart for orphans.  She and her husband Joe have adopted 3 children from Eastern Europe so it was a real blessing they were place together.


Even though James is sporting a posh euro purse...they really did minister to the kids...



During the visit to the orphanage Nicole was introduced to a young man who won the hearts of the team from the previous year.  When she was asked to advocate for him he became so heavy on her heart and God literally laid this boy in her lap thanks to Tiffany on the team (the prayer the night before was God lay this young man literally in our laps).  Nicole knew she had to adopt him!
 
James and Nicole made a packed that they would go through their adoptions together and help one another.  Nicole put us in touch with Reece's Rainbow and an amazing state side helper named Nancy.  They loaded their suitcases in country with what they could to bring home to sell in an auction and fundraise together to bring our kiddos home. We are hoping and praying to land in country together to bring our kids home that God brought us both to on this incredible mission trip.


Please follow us on our journey of bringing "L" and "S" home to our families!

We are asking first and foremost for prayer and protection for our kids, the children we ministered to and our families as we move to bring the kids home.
