Bumps in the Road…

May 14, 2013 by Paul and Ellen Swenson

Today, as we anxiously await our passports and visas in the mail, we found out about this
http://adoption.state.gov/country_information/country_specific_alerts_notices.php?alert_notice_type=alerts&alert_notice_file=ghana_1
We are planning on flying on Friday and hopefully things will be more clear then. Our agency is not sure about the warning of this alert. We do not know if we fit their description of “approved” or not. God has a plan in all of this and we know He’ll guide and we’ll follow.
Some prayer requests:
1. That we find out tomorrow that our visas are “on the radar” on the UPS tracking website (which means they are on their way home)
2. That we have a wonderful time bonding with our little girl
3. That this alert does not apply to us and the U.S. will process her visa since we have already started the process and have an official letter from a regional social director there.
Thanks! We’ll try to keep you updated, however, we may not have service.
Ellen

    I can’t imagine how excited you are, hope all goes well & you get to spend some memory making time with your new daughter.

    Praying for all of you. I hope since everything is this far along and a court date is set that all will go forward.
