A Request of Friends and Family

Today I learned about a young family that needs your thoughts and prayers. The couple (Sandy and Dennis) adopted through an Atlanta based agency and has been in China these past two weeks. They were there to adopt their first child, Hannah, who was a waiting child (special needs). While there, Dennis went into a diabetic coma and passed away. Although the adoption was complete (or complete enough) and Sandy is bringing their new daughter home, I cannot imagine the pain and difficult times that lay ahead for her and the rest of her family. Please pray for Hannah and her family, whatever your faith. It is stressful when bringing home a newly adopted child...I can't even fathom doing it under these circumstances.

Of course, I will pray. God knows their pain and holds them both in His arms. Remember the scripture that says that He will be a Husband to the widow and a Father to the fatherless?

Love to both you and Lillie.
