Waiting and Waiting

We are still working on the orphanage land. It is a long and frustrating process. It makes one appreciate the ease of buying land in the US - which is complicated enough. Imagine trying to buy land in a place where rules are not always enforced and laws could change at any time. Also where bribes are expected (sorry... not from us!) and many people pose as land owners and sell land to others that they don't own. It's a scary process with lots of money at stake. We have talked to many lawyers and are waiting to hear back from others. George has also been meeting with local and government officials, feeling out the situation. It is difficult to be stuck in this waiting period. We are at a place where we need to move forward or consider other options, such as renting or other locations. We really need the Lord's wisdom and guidance to fall upon us.
