Here they come!!!

Parasto, Lida, Neelab, Sana, Shokofa, Basela and their interpreter Fatima are on their way from Afghanistan. They are coming over for some desperately needed health care. In Afghanistan there is 1 doctor for every 50,000 people. We are so excited to be a part of God's plan for these girls. We are sure to encounter bumps along the way--We are not expecting this to be easy by any means, that is not what following Jesus is about. We are just humbled that He chose us to be a part of loving these girls. If they were worth His blood, they are worth our sweat and tears these next few weeks. Please keep us in your prayers and we will keep you posted on their progress!!

Yesterday I specifically prayed that the girls would feel as comfortable as they can the first few days - even the first moments of meeting everyone. I prayed that God would use you all as a vehicle for them to know & learn about Him. I prayed that they felt safe & created amazing bonds. I also prayed that their medical needs are met without too many complications. I am so proud of all of you and so thankful Nicole that you followed your calling to bring these girls here! Here we go LA BRANCH!!!
