I cut and pasted a whole lot from a fellow Haitian Adoptive Mother's blog- http://overthebrim-thieszen.blogspot.com/
Tomorrow is a big day for orphans in Haiti! Please read on:
She writes: "Please be praying tomorrow, Tuesday, January 17th for 700+ Haitian orphanage directors, and the
new director of IBESR (Haitian Social Services) as they meet to discuss
the issues with Haitian adoptions! This is a HUGE opportunity for God's
pro-adoption heart to be heard through these directors as they make
their plees with the new director to make changes in the adoption
processes.
This meeting has the potential to break through the LONG
timeline of this process and therefore we are praying for God's mighty
Spirit to be filling that room tomorrow on behalf of every little orphan
waiting for a home as well as on behalf of these orphanage directors
who clearly have a heart to see these orphans find their forever
families.
Please pray for the new director to be open and
convicted and convinced that God's design for adoption needs to be
implemented in a much more manageable way in Haiti. She has been heard
saying she is not necessarily against adoption, but she sees it as a
last resort, which has not been encouraging to hear. We are simply
praying for her eyes, ears, and heart to be open to the plees of these
directors and the children they represent.
Ultimately we are
praying that no matter what happens in this meeting, God would be
honored, these orphaned children would be placed as a priority, and all
of the discussion would be directed towards positive change. "
