We’ve reached another roadblock in our attempt to bring our Joah home. This week we received an email from the embassy that our case was found to be “not clearly approvable”, meaning that they didn’t have sufficient information to give us clearance. Our file is being sent to the immigration office in Kenya for further review. This office has a higher authority to pass cases such as ours. We’re not exactly sure what to expect right now. Sounds like they should receive our case in about a week and then we’ll wait another 2-3 weeks to find out if they clear us or if they request more investigation as well.
We’ve hit so many delays that in some ways we’ve come to expect them. And aren’t even sure how to respond anymore! Needless to say, we were quite heartbroken to receive this news. Hearbroken, frustrated, confused. . . but still not without hope. Darrel and I had just prayed for Joah and the embassy’s decision, and then woke up to this message. We know God continues to be at work.
I’m feeling it too baby!
Poor little guy. I just want to wipe that little tear from his cheek and scoop him up in my arms. We’ll keep fighting for you sweet boy!
No inspired words of comfort, just a groan, a tear, and a prayer for Joah and you. Sue
Look at that crocodile tear! We continue to pray that both you and Joah feel God’s comfort!
