Family Friday - Morris Family

I would like to introduce you to the Morris family. Steve and Katrina are adopting Carlene. The Morris family thought their family was complete until Katrina was advocating for adoption during the month of November. She stumbled upon a blog that was talking about Reece’s Rainbow families. Katrina started to follow one of those families and by December had fallen in love with a little girl named Carlene. A few weeks later, Carlene had found a family and so Katrina started to look at other little girls with Down syndrome because she was feeling like God was calling their family to adopt again. But every time she would start to pray about a little one, they would find a family. She was beginning to think that maybe it wasn’t something they were suppose to do and so she just started to concentrate on fund raising for other families. Then she noticed that Carlene was listed again and she knew that she was her child. Steve and Katrina prayed about it and together decided that the time was right and that they needed to go and get Carlene. Carlene has already been moved to an institution so they are trying hard to get to her as soon as possible. They are excited about starting on this journey and experiencing the joy of having a child with Down syndrome.

The Morris family has begun a fundraiser to win an ipad2 and other great prizes. Who wouldn't want to win an ipad!! Here is how you can enter the drawing:

To enter for the ipad2, to check out the other fundraisers going on to bring this little girl home, or to follow along with their journey visit their blog at http://operationorphannomore.blogspot.com/. They would love your support and to have you follow along.

Dear Lord, I lift up the Morris family to you in prayer. We pray that Carlene's region will begin accepting dossiers again. We pray that the Morris' fundraisers do well and that they are able to raise the much needed funds to bring Carlene home and out of the institution that she is living in. We pray for Carlene's health and safety during this time and pray that she knows her family is coming to rescue her. We ask this in Jesus' name, Amen.
