Thankful

Thankful to all that support us and waiting orphans in prayer and donations and encouraging words. Thankful for the people of Winneconne Christian Fellowship and Pastor Dan. They don't even know us but their love for orphans pours out. They had us come and speak about our last adventure and our new adventure to come. And then they blessed us! They were so kind and giving!! Through their donations, we are able to put a big dent in our home study fees. This time around our home study will be double of what it was last time due to changes requiring all studies to now be Haque approved. So we are looking at $4,000. For just the home study. This time around we also have to have clearances from all the states we have lived in since we were 18! Well for us, this is a lot of states!! I believe we are still waiting for clearance from one last state. Meanwhile everything is delayed and our little boys sit in a crib day after day unaware that someday they will have a family and love, attention, enough food and medical care. It is so hard having them wait. We are praying that the 4 year old can continue to stay at the baby house or he will not survive long at the adult mental facility he is to go to. Again age 4 is a sad time for these kids. My heart breaks thinking about the things that Sergei endured. Going without food, never leaving his crib, being locked away from visitors and volunteers because he was in the laying down room where no one is allowed to go in or see except maybe the one employee that goes in once a day to see who is dead and prop a bottle for the day, which sometimes falls and then no food for that day either. No clothes, sheets or bedding, no comforting or help. So many kids never escape this death sentence. We pray more people will become aware of the plight of these disabled children in Eastern Europe. We will continue to FIGHT 4 Freedom 4 Orphans!! Please visit www.reecesrainbow.org and help a child or family! Thank you! We are thankful for all!www.reecesrainbow.org/sponsorharlin-2
