Meet Bernadette & Mason's Family

The Rogers family is at it again! After being home only 4 months with their precious Prince Malachi and Princess Clare, they have felt the call to return. Erika is always looking on the Reece’s Rainbow site and praying for the children there. She saw an urgent need for 2 teenage boys that had to be adopted quickly. That got the wheels turning and she talked to Mel about if they thought an older child would fit in their family. They have 9 children ages 24-2, with 7 still at home. They knew what would happen to the older children once they turned 16 and felt that they couldn’t save them all but they could at least save one. When they saw Miss Bernadette’s face, they knew she was their daughter. With this energetic family, one is never enough, so they looked at all the children at Bernadette’s institution. Little “Monkey Man” Mason stood out as a ball of energy that they could see the other boys wrestling and playing with. Having just completed an adoption, the family would appreciate any financial help and prayers to rescue these two children who are living on borrowed time. 4/9/12—HOME STUDY COMPLETE, AWAITING USCIS APPROVAL Follow the family’s adoption journey on their blog at http://www.arainbowfamily.blogspot.com

Patti is getting adopted!!!!

I've been feeling like we were due to have another one of our precious ones from Orphanage 39 find a home, and what do you know Patti is going home :) We now are at the halfway point. 8 kids have families committed to them, and 8 more are waiting for a family. Here are the kids from 39 who are still waiting for their forever family to find them:

Six Weeks, Six Kids

That God is working on behalf of the children in Orphanage 39 is undeniable!  Six weeks ago, Renee (who adopted a young girl from 39) began praying and blogging about the other waiting children.

In the past six weeks, SIX CHILDREN from Orphanage 39 are heading home to their forever families!  What makes the women of Praying Them Home even more excited is that most of these kids are coming to Virginia!  We are already dreaming of a big reunion!!!

Stay tuned, we can't wait to see who's next!

Duncan has found a family!!!!

Just the other day we had 3 of the 16 orphanage 39 orphans that we have been praying for find a home, and now we can add Duncan to the list. Praise the Lord with us!!!!! Now, sweet Bernadette is the last one whose time is running out to find a family. She has until November to get adopted. Please pray for God to work everything out for Bernadette to find a forever family. If you would like to see some cute pictures of Renee's visit to orphanage 39 you can view them at www.butbygraceitcouldbeme.blogspot.com.

Pray and watch the Lord work

About a month or two ago a couple of us women decided that we were going to help the orphan crisis by praying. The crisis is so big where does one begin? We decided to look for where the Lord was already working and we would start there. Well, I watched the blogs and the Reece's Rainbow facebook pages and kept seeing people being burdened for the children of orphanage 39, so I figured that must be where the Lord was working. We decided that we would commit to praying for the children of orphanage 39 by name and we would try to get the churches in our area to each commit to praying for a particular child. Since we started praying the Lord has found a family for 3 of the 16 children. Praise the Lord! So, as of now, Alexis, Tyler, Samuel will be united with their families in about 6-7 months. Actually, Samuel will probably go home sooner than that, as he only has until May to be adopted. God is so good. Please join us in praying for the rest of the orphanage 39 children who desparately want a family. If you would like to read more about each child you can visit Renee Alan's blog www.butbygraceitcouldbeme.blogspot.com. She just adopted from orphanage 39 and she blogged about each of the children while she was over there.
