Oh, my dear friends and readers,
Remember the boy, Vanya, the angel-faced orphan living in the Ukraine who had caught the heart of a blogger mom, who then decided to advocate through blogs to find him parents and raise money for his adoption? I hope you went to go see all the amazing prizes that were donated for the fundraiser--truly an outpouring of love from so many creative women and men. Even more wonderful was the amount they raised for this little boy's adoption funds--as of today, 104% of their goal!!!
Sometimes money is the only obstacle to a child finding a forever home; but this time, the seemingly insurmountable obstacle is time. From the urgent post made by the mom who hosted the fundraiser, it sounds like there might only be days left for this little boy to find adoptive parents--or he will be moved to an institution and will forever lose any chance of being adopted. They have raised much of the funds that will be needed--now they need to find the family! It sounds like many families came forward expressing interest in adopting Vanya--but he is out of time. His only hope is a family who has their paperwork and permissions completed, who has been approved by that country to take such a boy home. It sounds impossible--but impossible things like this have happened before!
My praying readers, would you please lift up Vanya this weekend? Please pray--however you feel led, just pray.
