August arrival

I received a call from the hosting company. The appointment date is August 4th and they hope the arrival date will be August 5th. I'm very disappointed, and I know others are also. These are things that I have no control over.
School for the orphans starts back September 1. They will have to be back by that date. We are hoping to keep them until the end of August. Their 10 week trip will be shortened to 4 (or less).
We will make a new schedule as soon as I have confirmation they have paid for the plane tickets. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
The BBQ/ Car Wash at Palmerdale First Baptist today was a great success. Thanks to all who worked,donated, or/and bought food. God was good and the rain stopped in time to begin serving food and washing cars.
"God's plans endure forever; His purposes last eternally." Psalm 33:11
"God keeps His promise, and He will not allow you to be tested beyond your power to remain firm; at the time you are put to the test, He will give you the strength to endure it, and so provide you with a way out." 1 Corinthians 10:13
God has been so good to use many to help provide for the orphans coming. I trust He will send them in His perfect time. The more time that passes, the more people hear of their coming. The better their chances are for finding homes and bringing awareness to the problem.
Yes, but I morn the time we have lost with them.
