Please, please help

My heart is breaking for this family. I can't even begin to think of a more deserving family than Ashley's who is in the process of adopting a boy named Grisha. Their story is so inspiring and today they hit a huge roadblock. She is very discouraged. Basically they are in need of immediate donations to cover the $830 they need to redo their I-600A because of circumstances they had no control over. This family has been fundraising to bring their older son home for quite sometime and this roadblock is one they are not sure they can even overcome.

Please consider donating even a few dollars to them to help them continue the adoption process they have already started. They are in constant communication with their boy and they even managed to raise the money so that Ashley could go over and spend time with Grisha because the process was taking so long. This would be devastating to this boy if this family could not end up adopting him.

Please uplift this family in prayer------ they need so much encouragement right now. And if you could financially support them in any way------ you would be doing an amazing thing.

Yes, you could donate right on their site and leave thema comment to let them know what it is going for specifically. Hopefully, this will help them to see how God's faithful servants step up in time of need. Blessings to all of you who have decided to donate.

Just went and donated too...it wasn't much, but it was all I had left of my Christmas gift money. Definitely put to better use than buying another pair of Yoga pants. Thank you for sharing the link....

Praise God! He is awesome and loves His little ones so much! Look how He is providing for Grisha to come home! Thank you for sharing this, Christine. :-)

I could adopt too if I came on her and begged for money all the time

Kristen-

It's sad you feel the need to post such a hateful comment. I think it's wonderful for adoptive parents to have an outlet for donations...some people read a story and are moved to help. Some people read a story and are motivated to change their lives.

If you don't like blogs that have a "donate" button, don't visit!

I was happy to donate to a story that moved me. Be snarky somewhere else.

I have gotten caught up on my blogs since we were out of town. Boy are some people harsh. Prayers and Hugs for everyone. God is good and good will prevail.
