Major adoption prayer request

Ok, I have a really, really important adoption prayer request. As some of you know, Becky, the Russian Orphan Lighthouse Project coordinator, was pulling together a presentation for a very wealthy donor who may have been able to give upwards of $1 million. However, the phone/personal presentation didn't work out for several reasons. Anyway, she had to revert to a letter, not always the most successful fundraising route. Interestingly enough, the presentation covered many families, ours included, but none framed as to stand out more than any other. Due to the change in format, Becky is unable to present all the cases. After a weekend of thought and prayer, she decided that our family's adoption was the highest priority case, and should be the one sent in the letter. Therefore, a letter presenting our need will most likely be in a very wealthy man's hands tomorrow. Please pray that God would move his heart to give abundantly- Becky has asked for the $70,000 needed to complete both adoptions. This could mean the difference between 1-2 more months of waiting, or 1-2 more years of waiting. Please, please, be in much prayer about this!
