We received another email from Jenny at Half the Sky today and the news is not very good. "As of this morning (Friday) there were 19,509 people confirmed dead. The State Council today said there will likely be more than 50,000. Today’s government report describes one terrible scene after another: thousands homeless, thousands missing, thousands injured, thousands trapped or buried alive. Hope for survivors is dimming. There is an urgent call for body bags to prevent the spread of disease. There have been over 4,400 aftershocks."
Our hearts are just aching for the people of China! Since we began our adoption, and even before, we have been fascinated by this beautiful and amazing country. In the last three years China has grown to be very dear to our hearts because our daughter is there. We love everything about China and it has become a part of us. We are so worried that our little girl, along with thousands of men, women, and children, is in need of food, water, medicine, or clothing. Please continue to pray and donate all you can!

My prayers go out to you, the people in China, adoptive families, and your precious baby girl.
