Yowza!
The 82 Colorado-bound orphans are in the air as I type, being flown to Florida. Governor Ritter has chartered a flight with a medical crew to meet them there and fly them into Denver. They'll be medically evaluated while in the air.
Then their families will pick them up this evening! They shall sleep in their new beds tonight!
Our church alone will be welcoming 19 new children this weekend.
(I think that's the number. . . And, actually, I doubt any of them will be brought to a church service so soon upon arrival. But still!)
Thank God for their arrival, for their families, for the hundred of workers on both sides of the border who worked to make this happen.
And let's continue to pray for the orphans who were not already matched to families before the earthquake. There is still hope that they will be evacuated, too, under a humanitarian visa.
