Woohoo!!

Legally Done!!!

Tessa and Hanna’s mom signed the papers! They can now stay at Casa Hogar without legal difficulties. Very exciting! Their mother looked very happy. Very peaceful about what she did today. I’m so glad she has realized that what she is doing is going to benefit her girls greatly. Thank you God!!!! His plan always works out well in the end. The paper she signed today gives Casa Hogar Eirene legal permission to take care of her girls and it also says that no one but her can take her girls out of here. Which is a good thing. The papers for the birth certificates are in process. First they have to file a paper that proves that they are not already registered. Once that is done, the mom will go to Cocula and sign the papers and DONE. They do not have one yet because neither of them was born in a hospital and the mom never bothered to register them. Please continue to pray for everyone. Please pray that the mom shows up when it is time to sign for the certificates, please pray for Hanna and her adjustment to our house and life. We also need to get the birth certificates for Luis, Javi, and Pati. We have been waiting for almost a year for their birth certificates. They finally found Laura’s about 2 months ago!
God is so good!

...and then their were 13!

The papers are signed!!! The girls are here and the mother got to see them today. She was very pleased at how well the girls are doing and happy to have them continue to stay somewhere safe. Please keep praying. There is one more step to take this week and all the papers should be set. Please pray that these last details will be tied up with no snags. Also please pray for all of us through this adjustment. The Cummings have had Hannah for almost two years and this is going to be a difficult transition for all involved. It is hard enough to make an adjustment to a new living situation when you come from a bad situation but it is even more difficult when you have to leave a home of love. We could feel your support of prayer today. Thank you so much and please keep going until Friday night.

Tessa and Hanna

We found Tessa and Hanna’s mom. She has to find her i.d. card before Wednesday at 10 a.m. when she is supposed to have a meeting where she will sign some papers so that the girls can legally stay here at the Casa Hogar. She has had to show up for a couple other meetings like this before but hasn’t. Also, if she doesn’t have her i.d. she can’t sign the papers that give Tessa and Hanna legal permission to be at the Casa Hogar. We need everyone’s prayers please!! This lady has to sign the papers before the end of the year or the girls will have to either be taken by the State and never seen again or go back to their grandma’s house where they were severely abused. Please pray that their mother will feel a burden to need to do the best thing for her girls, to protect them. Please pray that the person who has this lady’s papers will actually give them to her because at past times they have been held hostage by the lady’s mom. Please pray that she will feel the obligation she has as a mother to her girls!! Only with God’s help can this be accomplished!!! Thank you so much! We know that when God’s people pray He listens!!! May His will be done!
