Here is the latest news:
-My agency has 43 cases that need court dates.
-We have received 8 court dates already.
-The court dates are random and not in order.
-The judges and court employees have been replaced after this rain season break. This could be good or bad. Only time will tell.
-There are 400 cases that need dates.
-Open cases are being heard inbetween court dates. (That is not me.)
So, I am still waiting. I will say that my agency has been in touch with me via email at least three times this week. It has been nice to receive information. I keep feeling like it could be any time when I receive that phone call. Who knows?
Mom has been out here with me for the last week. It has been nice to spend some time with her before Yoseph gets over here. I feel so thankful for my family. I will update again once I hear more news. God is good!

Greeeeat News!
What a busy week this has been! Mom got her results back from the PET test on Monday morning this past week and they could not find cancer anywhere in her body. She called in tears to let me know that God had healed her. It was one of the best phone calls I have had in a long time. She turns 87 tomorrow and this was a wonderful way to start out her week. As I usually say, God is good!
I heard news today that Ethiopia is not opening until Oct. 13th now. I also heard that we have 30 people waiting for court dates. They said those of us who are waiting longest will get dates sooner. I just wonder what that means. I mean, I have been waiting since June 2 to get a date, but is that really long? It is all relative in this process.
It reminds me of when I moved out to NC and the traffic was so crazy. In MO, there never was traffic in my town and you could travel 5 miles in 5 minutes or less. In NC it takes 30 minutes to travel 5 miles. It all depends on where you are and what the word "Long Wait" means. Life is different in Ethiopia and I am sure I have no idea just how different. I am ready to find out.
Thank you all for praying for my mom and for Samuel. Glad the weekend is here.
