Delays
Well, we just got a call from Natalie. I was hoping that she would call today, even though it is a holiday, so that we could know if we passed court or not. Prior to the court date (the day before court), the Ministry of Women's Affairs (MOWA) has to write their opinion on our case. Due to the extreme drought (Ethiopia uses primarily hydroelectricity), there have been scheduled power outages in Ethiopia. MOWA did not have electricity on Friday or today, so they were not able to write their opinion on our case. Natalie said that MOWA would work on writing their opinion of our case tomorrow. Wednesday is a holiday in Ethiopia, so our court date is rescheduled for this Thursday, May 29. Please keep us in your prayers. Ethiopia is eight hours ahead of us, so hopefully we'll know something before lunch on Thursday. We'll keep you updated. Blessings!

I am so sorry- that must be so frustrating! But lets hope everything is in line for court on the 29th!
I think you knew to expect something like this, but it is still disappointing. We'll keep on praying that Thursday will be your day!
Love, Susan
Thanks for the update Rebecca- I know it's hard to have delays and uncertainties and have to report them to us, your faithful readers :). But we will continue to pray for a FAVORABLE outcome thursday!!!

Good luck tomorrow!! I will be thinking about you and keeping my fingers crossed that you make it through court.
My husband and I are in the very early stages of an Ethiopian adoption. I'm new to the blogosphere, so please stop by and say hello if you get a chance. :)
