We are moving along with our home study and hope to be finished with the process by the end of the summer. Thank you to all of you for your support and prayers!  

Praises:

• We have raised/saved 45% of our needed finances 
• The home study is moving along well!
  

Current Prayer Requests:

• For God to use the trainings and home study process to prepare our hearts to raise our next child and open our eyes to the needs he/she will have
  
• For the psychological evaluations to go smoothly 
  
• For the home study process to conclude without any hindrances
  

Current Financial Needs:

• We are currently saving for the Adoption Program Fee which is the largest fee we will encounter in this process. This fee will be due when we are matched with a child.

This fee helps cover the cost to facilitate the adoption in Korea. This includes, but is not limited to:

• The care of our child prior to adoption
• Child's Korean passport and U.S. visa fees
• Costs associated with obtaining child updates
• Costs for personnel, administrative overhead, training and education both in the U.S. and Korea
• Legal adoption services and communications, working with government and agency authorities 
• Child welfare projects in Korea
