Well, our situation seems to always be changing :) Originally we were supposed to leave in February, then May, and now Joe is leaving in July. The girls and I are going to wait until our apartment is done being built sometime in the October time frame. Welcome to Liberian time. Things happen when they happen. No rush. Rarely a plan. Drives me crazy sometimes! But then I have to sit back and realize that yes, the Lord is in control and everything is beautiful in its time Eccl. 3:11. A quote from one of our Liberian friends:
"You Americans have too many watches and never enough time. Me, I have no watch and plenty of time!"
The Acres of Hope website has been updated recently. There is a picture of our apartment being built! Yeah! If you want to see the things we will be involved in (http://www.acresofhope.org/) and click on projects.
Thank you all for your emotional and financial support. We couldn't be doing this without you! The Lord has used you tremendously for our encouragement. Please pray for the following:
--Safe travel for Joe
--Funding/Fundraising
--Health
May He continually be our everything!
About Me
- The Callaghans
- We (Joey and Chloe) live in Monrovia Liberia with our two girls, Emma and Ava. God led us here to serve Him by loving the orphans here and to adopt Joshua Mulbah (soon to be Joshua Mulba Callaghan). Originally we are from Norman, Oklahoma. After I got out of the Marine Corps we knew God was calling us to serve Him in Africa. So here we are.
