Dear Friends,
We just received our invitation to go to Ukraine for our adoption hearing. God willing, we will arrive in Kiev on Saturday August 4th and our hearing will take place the following Monday. After the hearing we'll take an 18 hour train ride to the town where Vlad's orphanage is situated. We will be in Ukraine for at least six weeks.
Thank you all once again for your generous gifts that made this trip possible. We covet your prayers as we prepare to go and please pray for Vlad to be prepared for this huge change in his life.
Love,
Beth and Bill
