Some new from Latvia

The New Horizons mission team is traveling in Latvia right now (I believe they go to Russia tomorrow.) A couple of days ago they updated the message board with news from the Liepaja orphanage. Le Ann (the director of New Horizons) is the one who is writing the words below:


"We made it to Liapija today and saw Roberts and Rebekka... I am in big trouble if someone doesn't host this little guy! He came running to me and said GO AMERICO!!! Mommy and daddy! Go AMerico! And he cried a bit. I held him and he clung to me the entire day and sat on my lap during interviews. I got lots of kisses for everyone I am sure, and he was such a cuddle bug. Rebekka is as beautiful as ever and smiled all the time. She was wearing some of her American purchased clothes, as was Roberts..."


Oh how we cried and cried when we read this. It made us miss them even more. Poor little Robbie. Le Ann loves Roberts--she has always said he reminds her of her youngest adopted son. I am sure she will host them if no one else does. But seeing as how they are so beautiful I think she'll be "safe" and will not have to host them! (She has 8 children so I'm sure bringing two more in would be tough!)
I was glad to hear some news of them though. At least I know they are okay. We still have not heard from them by email which is sorta disappointing but that's alright. We are hoping to send a package to them soon--I was hoping this past week but with our 2 front tires going flat within 24 hours of each other we have to put that off for a week or so. :) We have a package for Sergeis too.
Please pray for the mission team as they travel. They are going into Russia which could be a little difficult with all that is going on so pray for their safety and God's guidance as well as the children over there who are in the process of being adopted.
