Good news!

Today, August 25 at 12:00 the phone rang. It was the Iraqi Embassy. You won’t believe it, but they called to tell us that João’s police clearance had arrived from Baghdad. Of course we calmly received the news. Right?! How long do you think it took us to tear out of the house and make it down to the Embassy? We wanted that document in our hot little hands! Sure enough, it was the right document. You can even take a look at it up close and personal at the bottom of post. We were so excited and so happy. Since it came by Fedex, we know that it was granted after you began praying about the situation. Now we know why we just didn’t feel right about going down to Embassy before now. We gave thanks to God, to whom all the glory goes. He must want us in Canada! Thank you for your participation in this exciting episode of seeing God’s hand at work in our lives.
