Back on The Move!!

Ok. Ruth and Luda are on the move! Today the Lord performed a miracle. Ruth, Luda, and Yuri got up at 630am, had breakfast, and then went to the court house at 8am to pickup the court decree. It was ready and then they went to the orphanage to check Luda out for the last time. That went smooth and quickly; then they went to the social worker for final paperwork. By 9am they left for a 4-5 hour drive to Sudak to get the birth certificate. They made it in 3 hours.

They got the new birth certificate (with her new name on it Hannah Luda Viehman) in 30 minutes! This is world record time. Next they drove back to Simferopol and went to the notary and then to get a federal ID number. They were racing the clock to be at the passport office by 4pm. They made it at 3pm which is incredible. They were in and out in 30 minutes; another miracle.

Now they are on a plane to Kiev! They will stay in a Hyatt which is going to be nice. They have to wait until next week to pick up the pport and then start the final phase. This was an impossible day to get it all done but the Lord truly parted the Red Sea!! Nothing moves that fast or efficient there. Everyone thank and praise Jesus and the Father!

  2. Yes! Praise the Lord! That was really amazing! We are exited for them to get home. Ana is ready to translate and to explain the "differences" that awaits Luda. Will you be calling her Luda or Hannah?
