Pastor Zane and Summer have been battling - in prayer and in person - for their children to be legally adopted and released from Uganda. Zane went to court on Wednesday and after waiting 5 hours with three of his little kiddos, the judge heard his case! Last month the judge didn't even show up, so this is progress here. Lord willing, the judge will have a decision for them on Tuesday for the first three of the 11 children going through this process. (Elianah, Ezra, and Elizabeth.) We trust a Sovereign God for His Almighty plan. Please pray that the judge would rule favorably, and their family could be together as soon as possible.
Also, this is a prayer request from Summer regarding this adoption process:
"That a court date will be officially set for the next three chilren...Elyssa, Enoch and Ethan...and that Elyssa's birth father will be present {he already gave up his parental rights when we obtained legal guardianship of Elyssa back in 2009}."
And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
Luke 18:1-8
Be persistent in prayer!
Your family is awesome...thinking of you today. Wondering why the Lord is ushering you in while He carries us out.
ReplyDeleteI will try to call you again soon.
