"An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle, but will never break."
~Chinese Proverb

“Adoption is a perfect picture of what God has done for each of us in making us His children through Christ. Psalm 68:5-6 tells us that as the Father of the fatherless, God delights in setting the lonely in families. It has been our experience that the scriptural mandate of caring for orphans, such as the one found in James 1:27, is really a wonderful invitation to experience God in a profound way by being part of His sovereign plan for His precious children.” Steven Curtis Chapman & Mary Beth Chapman, Authors of "Shaoey and Dot", a story about adoption.

Hong Kong

Praise God we made it to Hong Kong safely.  Abby & Micah were real troopers during our 22 hrs of travel - UGH..  Thus far, we haven't been able to sleep much.  Hopefully with improved sleep our stress & anxiety will alleviate.  Today was our 1 vacation day.  Enjoyed the pool, went to victoria's peak via the peak tram, and went shopping (7 story mall connected to our hotel).  Now we are really beat.

Tomorrow we travel by vehicle to mainland China and then fly to Nanchang.  On Sunday, our plan is to travel with our guide to Abby's birth city.  We'll post pictures when in Nanchange.  Please keep us in your prayers for continued safety.  
--Jackie & Craig
