1/27/09 - Home Study State Endorsement

We received an email from our social worker, Faith, yesterday saying that our home study has finally been endorsed by the state of Illinois (an eight week process for what should have taken four to six weeks, but who's counting - ha! ha!). We are very excited as this means on to the next and last step of approval waiting!!

NEXT STEPS: Due to changes at USCIS(United States Citizenship and Immigration Services), Mike needs to redo some paperwork, which he is doing this week. He will send it to Faith and she will forward it, with our home study, to the USCIS office. Last fall, USCIS was taking about four weeks to approve home studies and send out I171H forms - the last form we need! We're not even counting, though. It will all happen in God's timing.

PRAISE AND PRAYER: Praise for our friends and family and their encouragement that we keep going in this process. Pray that God's hand would continue to be on this process and our hearts and that He would get the glory!
