Adoption Update

Marvin and I are currently going through the adoption paperwork for Leo. Many of you may know that Leo returned to the Philippines in early December and we are hoping that the adoption process will be completed early enough so that we can pick him up in the PI by Maile's 6th birthday at the end of June. It may not be until next Christmas, but we're believing God for a miracle. Keep us in your prayers!



There were 14 children who participated in the 2008 Philippines Welcome Home Program. Out of those 14, 9 will be making it back to the US with forever families! Leo, Julius, Francis, Reggie, Lalaine, Inggo, Jessica, John, and JB will be growing up together in Southern California! Praise God!

It is not too late to advocate for the other 5 children to find adoptive families. Marie, Chris, Joven, Catherine & Bryan (sibling set of 2) are still waiting to be blessed by loving families. You can click on the picture here for an enlarged view of the children with their names. If you or anyone you know have any questions regarding these children, please call the International Christians Adoptions (ICA) office at 951-695-3336 or you can call me at 951-704-2404.

There will be another Philippines Welcome Home Program coming up in April so I will keep you posted. If anyone is interested in hosting one of the orphans for the April program, please call either of the numbers above.

Have a blessed and prosperous New Year!!!
