More news!
So, we applied for a no-interest loan awhile back. About two weeks ago, this particular agency contacted us and said they were out of funds for their fiscal year. However, they referred us to another agency that they work with closely. It looked like we had a shot at getting up to a $5,000, no-interest loan to cover some adoption costs.
Then, we got a call to day.
Somehow, we got a $7,500 no-interest loan! How awesome is that?!?! Kristen said it best when she said "whew" as we were talking about it tonight. We had some costs that needed to be covered before we go to Uganda the first time. With this loan, those particular costs are covered!
God is continuing to teach me a lot. Coincidences seem to be happening left and right lately. However, something about them don't feel exactly like coincidence. It feels more like someone moving chess pieces around, carefully executing a plan. Our adoption funding is obviously one of those things. Another is a friend of ours who seems to have found a job in a church. The job is exactly what he was looking for. Sometimes, life can just be so exciting :)
Thank you for your prayer and support. I've heard lots of cool stories and had lots of great conversations with people that I sometimes don't normally talk to. If you haven't yet, speak up. I'd love to chat with you!
