Encouraging News from a WTR

You just never know how God is going to use what you are doing to impact people.
Consider this one couple who came to a WTR a year ago.
No greater mission—EVERY home a godly home,

Dear FamilyLife,

I really should share with you. Last year, my husband and I attended because we had been struggling with each other due to infertility and many problems with adoptions. We had had so many ups and downs with the adoption that it was taking a toll on us. The week-end was amazing and we left renewed. At the conference I had put a prayer in the prayer box for "the perfect placement of our daughter" as we were pursuing an adoption of a little girl in Taiwan. We left on Sunday, feeling really good and then on Monday received a horrible e-mail stating that there were new requirements that we did not meet for the adoption (after 10 months of turning in paperwork, sending money and going through the home study). We felt like God had turned his back on us. Really I'm not sure we as a couple would have been strong enough to have endured this had we not just attended the conference. To make a long story short, we then found out we were pregnant in October and in January found out it is a girl. I now realize God did answer our prayer of the perfect placement of our daughter, just not the way we thought it would happen. Praise God. Thank you so much for offering such a wonderful week-end.
