We sure need help!

Well, not much to post that would interest the general public!  But, we are now one week into the wait for our Travel Approval (a.k.a. TA)  The faster average is 2-3 weeks to receive that, and we need to be in the 2 weeks...preferably LESS...category!  Let me urge you all again to PRAY for God to intervene on Kennedy's behalf!  She needs to come home as quickly as possible.  As difficult as the wait is for us, it is MUCH harder for her given her circumstances.  We need that travel approval by at least this time next week!

Also, time for a little shameless begging here.  You may have noticed that our chip-in bar to the left to help pay for Kennedy's orphanage fee is at a big 0%.  That is only one of the smaller fees we are facing in the next short weeks.  Along with that fee, we have thousands in plane fares, lodging and food for 2 weeks while in China, in-country travel, our guide/translator, exit documents...the list goes on.  We have had 2 wonderful families contribute directly to us to avoid having any of their donation go to Paypal fees.  If you feel led to help us financially in any way...and believe me...EVERY dollar counts...and if you prefer to send it directly to us instead of through Paypal on the chip-in bar, send us a comment and we will give you the address.

If you know ANYONE with a heart for the orphan, PLEASE pass this along to them.  I know this is an uncomfortable post, but we NEED help.  Maybe you can share it with your church, your small group or a business looking for a good cause to donate to.  We would appreciate it greatly!



Here are 2 totally unrelated pictures of our little gymnast.  Any post is better with some pictures!
