Good News
We received a good update from our agency today regarding MOWA. You can read it below. AWA also has all our completed paperwork and it is on track to be DTE this Friday! This means our official spot in the referral line will be this Friday and our wait will begin.
Please pray that our dossier would actually be able to be mailed in on Friday. Also, please pray that the new staff of MOWA would do their work well and that they would do their best to provide homes for orphans in their country.
Ethiopia Update While meetings between Ethiopian government officials continue, we have seen positive steps. Within MOWA, there have been significant and positive personnel changes which have resulted in overall staff turnover and changes in the adoption unit. This unit is now called the Ministry of Women, Children and Youth Affairs (MOWCYA). We are hopeful and expectant that the new leadership will not only support processing an adequate number of favorable recommendation letters, but also implement policies that will best serve the children. Due to the staffing changes, we anticipate much transition over the next few weeks. However, we expect that once everyone is settled into their new positions, MOWCYA will work to process a higher number of recommendation letters than they currently are able to process. We have continued to receive optimistic feedback and have seen how the Ethiopian government is very committed to adoption.
