Last minute organization!

Hello everyone!

Well, we are in the rush mode to finish up things here at home before heading to the Ukraine Saturday! We fly from Fresno to San Francisco to Germany to Kiev (now officially spelled Kyiv). We will spend a couple of days in Kyiv before heading down to Berdiansk to hopefully see the girls on Thanksgiving day. We praise God for this appointment and the chance to expand our family. Please pray for us, our children and mothers here at home and the girls in Kyiv as we start this journey!

Love and blessings,

Dan and Julie

We are WITH you and pray for you every day. Your blog will be daily reading. IMPORTANT QUESTION - "Where is the internet cafe'?" That will be your life-line while you're gone. Vitya is praying for you too, and squeeled with joy when we carefully explained what you're doing. He is happy that others are coming to the U.S. to have a mama and a papa. LOVE YOU GUYS!

Hi Dan and Julie. This is Jewel Zimmmerman from the Oasis church. I know we don't know you guys, but Kenny gave us a heads up on what's going on with you and we just wanted to touch base with you as you are abroad expanding the Kingdom of God. :-)

What a thanksgiving you had! While we were here eating turkey, you were literally couting the most recent blessings God has given you. Congratulations!

We pray all will continue to so smoothly for you and for the girls through this process and through the trip 'home.' Praise God! We look forward to hearing your stories when you return.

Our prayers are with you. May the Lord be with you and keep you.

Blessings,

Jewel and Ross et al
