Okay...we kind of expected something unexpected to happen...it's the story of our lives!
Yesterday, when the orphanage went to the visa interview, they found a note on the door saying that the guy had some kind of emergency and was out of the office.
I feel bad for this man and whatever emergency he had that took him away from the office...but really?! It just couldn't happen smoothly could it?! Oh well.
The orphanage will try again today. They were quite upset about the appointment. They will call us when they've been able to get the interview for the visa.

We know that God's timing and ways are perfect.
This is all just a part of the journey of life.

There is so much going on this week that we have plenty to keep us distracted and busy...and less time to sit around feeling bummed!
Serve Day is happening on Sunday.
It is one opportunity as Christians to show that we believe what happens outside the church is as important as what happens inside. Serve Day is confirmation of that fact. All Sunday services will be canceled on May 17th for a chance to love our communities in tangible ways. It is pretty awesome.
There are all sorts of service teams. Some will do construction projects, clean business windows, put on a carnival, wash cars, clean up streets, beautify a school, be a team that walks through the neighborhood helping to clean up lawns or install smoke detectors or light bulbs. There will be about a thousand people a part of this! It was so exciting last year! I loved how it brought Christians together for a common goal: to love people, not just in words but in deed and truth.
Andrew one of the main guys in charge of planning, organizing and directing everything that will take place on Serve Day. There is so much that goes into preparing and figuring out how to ensure that it all goes as well as possible. There are all sorts of service teams.

Andrew is does a great job. He is humble and would instantly brush off any compliment aimed at him, but I know the stress and the pressure that comes with what he does and I know for a fact that he's doing an amazing job!
I'll keep you posted on the latest updates on Jeremy and Serve Day!
