My birth certificate is supposed to be sent out today, then I need to send it back to PA to be apostilled. I found an express apostille place online that was started by a family after their own adoption of a child from Colombia. I've been e-mailing the owner back and forth regarding our situation, and today she told me she will be praying that it arrives to her quickly. :) How encouraging is that--more prayers, and from a perfect stranger!
We're still waiting to know the exact amount of grant money that will be available to us. Pray that we will know as soon as possible and that it will be enough to at least pay our agency next week. I'm assuming all will be sent to Colombia early in the week.
Trying to turn everything over to God and claim His peace that passes all understanding. This has been a true faith-stretching experience.
About Me
- Rachelle D Alspaugh
- I've been married to my husband, Michael, for almost 25 years. I'm a mom to a biological son and an adopted son from Colombia, and I'm also a spiritual mom to my adopted son's older brother, who I claim as a son in my heart. I'm bilingual and love to work with and relate to Spanish-speaking children and families. I've been a teacher to students from all sorts of backgrounds and cultures for the last 20+ years. I'm also an author and a certified Biblical counselor. I'm in a new empty nest season in a new location far from where I raised my boys, so I'm definitely in a stage of rediscovering myself, my interests, and my purpose.
