IAC update

The IAC met again on July 23 to review dossier for official first trip referrals. In prose, for those who haven't studied the nuance of this process ad nauseum: you send your big paperwork packet (dossier-it's French for stomach ulcer) and await the Ministry of Justice's International Adoption Committee to meet, review your dossier, and *ideally* issue a referral. This is for trip #1. Once this referral is issued, you wait, again, for 3-6 weeks for the actual signed document and official travel dates/invitation, etc.....


And so.....yesterday, the IAC met again......





AND OUR FILE WAS REVIEWED!!!! WE HAVE OUR REFERRAL!!!! It's been a long, LONG, nerve wracking wait. But God is good, all the time.


But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. 
Isaiah 40:31 (KJV)
