"For I know the plans I have for you" declares the Lord,
"plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you
hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
Jeremiah 29: 11-13

Michael Versfeld.....



We serve an awesome God!!

Today we became the proud parents of Michael Ayinbota Atua Versfeld, a handsome 1-year old from Ghana.

Although our journey to this point has been a roller coaster of emotions, hearing the words "adoption granted" has made all the sacrifices worth while. Being apart from his Dad & sisters has been difficult for Samuel and is still coming to terms with sharing Mommy, but already loves his little brother.

More later about Samuel and my time in Ghana as we will be travelling to the northern part of Ghana to meet Michael's family.

As for now ....... only prayers of thanks from a family who feels so blessed to have a new baby brother.
