"And anyone who welcomes a little child like this on my behalf is welcoming me." -Matthew 18:5
We have EXCITING NEWS and are a few
more baby steps closer to bringing home our sweet son from China.
On June 9, 2014 we received a REFERRAL from Lifeline – our adoption
agency. The Agency’s goal is to find families for children and we received a referral...WE'RE MATCHED.
Josh got the call and was excited to make the announcement to the
family. Monday afternoon when he was on his way home from work he
called the family at home and announced that the agency called to say that God has
provided a handsome little boy. OUR SON is amazing! Of course mommy was in tears and Jeremiah put on
his BIG SMILE. Karah leaned over to Jennah immediately and said, “Jennah! We
have our new baby brother!” What an amazing feeling... For all of you mother’s
out there it felt much like a positive pregnancy test and still does today. We
are so blessed to be on this journey and cannot wait to share more exciting
news about our son very soon. Our LETTER OF INTENT was submitted on June 13, 2014.
Unfortunately we can’t share too much information until we have an official Pre-Approval from
China, but OUR SON is wonderful and the Hahn family is on Cloud Nine. Pictures and more details
coming soon!
On Thursday, June 26th we traveled to the Department of Homeland
Security office in Missouri to do BIOMETRICS (fingerprinting) and are now in
the FBI Database.
The Department of Homeland
Security, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will then approve our eligibility to adopt from China. Please
pray that our application is processed appropriately and in God’s Time.
WHAT’S NEXT – THE WAIT!! Waiting for Pre-Approval from China and I-800A Immigration Approval. Then our DTC
(Dossier to China) will be authenticated and sent to China. We will announce the DTC DAY as soon as we know! You
can follow our adoption timeline on the right of our webpage blog.
HOW CAN YOU HELP? We will be collecting items for our
son’s orphanage soon So stay Posted!
We ask that you continue to pray for us
*For our son - keep him safe and healthy
*For our family - that we are patient and at peace during the WAIT
*That all required paperwork will be processed correctly and in God's time
