I sit here with my jaw wide open. Seriously, I think I am in a state of shock. I just got an email from our agency that we received our Letter of Acceptance (LOA) today. After just 49 days.
49 days!!
Our agency has been saying all along that they didn't think we would travel until August or September, yet I have had a sense of peace that we would be traveling earlier. I still don't know how long until we travel, because a new process has been put in place that extends the length of time until we get Travel Approval, but I am thinking maybe late June?
God is so good!!! Many, many heartfelt thanks to all of you who have kept us in your prayers!
