Homestudy: June 13

We are excited to tell you all that our homestudy with Buckner has been scheduled for Friday, June 13 at 9 a.m. Once this is finished, we become a waiting family. Many people ask, "What is a homestudy?" This is the final step of the process where our caseworkers come to our home and, literally, inspect it. On June 13, two things will be taking place. One of the caseworkers will be walking around our house looking for hazards, cleanliness, sufficiency of housing, and fire prevention. The other caseworker will meet with each of us in a sort of interview fashion to ask specific questions about our life. It sounds quite overwhelming, but it's really not. We are excited to be at this point of moving forward.

Ways to pray:
- Pray that our homestudy will go well and that the caseworkers can process it quickly.
- Pray that our financial needs will continue to come in. God has been so kind to provide so far. Thank you to all who have contributed.
- Pray for an unknown baby that is probably growing and developing right now. Ask the Lord to protect the child and to prepare it for our family.
- Pray for the birthmother who is weighing her options and considering an adoption plan. She is making a huge sacrifice for the goodness of her child.
- Pray for us as we prepare for the baby. Sedah is so excited to be a big sister. We are excited to welcome a new baby into our family.

Thanks for praying!

Jeremiah, Amanda and Hesedah
