Passports - Update

This is just a quick update to our prayer request regarding the kids' passports.

When we returned from being out of town (Texas & Kentucky for team-building) we had 3 of the 4 passports for our kids waiting for us in our mail. That took, quite literally 3 months from when we applied.

Two problems, though. (1) Obviously we still need the one other passport, but (2) one of the ones that arrived had a misprint that will require us to get a new one from the Dept of State. Here's the really weird thing - we called them about it, and it was clearly their mistake. That said, they still told us that if we wanted an expedited process for the re-do that we'd have to pay the full costs ourselves (in spite of the fact that the mistake was theirs)!

Please pray that God will provide a resolution - in His time and manner - for this, and that if He wants to use this obstacle to accomplish something else that we would be faithful, obedient, and walk it out in a way that is in line with His will. Lord - your will be done.
