James 1:27 exhorts us to care for the orphans and widows.
The exhortation is given to all Christians, but what that looks like lived out is different for everyone. Some are called to adopt! Some are called to encourage and visit, investing time! Some are called to support monetarily!

Please know that we have appreciated all of your prayer support and are grateful for the many who have invested time and money of your own in a young man's life who you did not know. We hope you will meet him some day soon. He will never know the amount and sacrifice made on his behalf, but I pray he will feel and truly know the love and acceptance from you! God bless!

Goodbye China...Hello America!

Last visit to the China Marriot breakfast bar
Beautiful orchids graced the tables
So many choices!
Last visit to Starbucks....signing their book
Levi wrote his own page...
Father/Son pages.....wonder what Levi's says!
The guy standing in front of the rebar pillar was wearing a piece of cardboard for a welding mask!

Bike parking lot
Leaving Guangdong, entering Hong Kong
Hong Kong driving....drivers and lanes are opposite of ours!


Breakfast at the Hong Kong Airport
Levi is plugged in and ready for the long flight to America....wait till the Dramamine kicks in!
Flying East, into the Sunrise!  
I was fascinated by the cloud cover below and the layers.
American Soil....new American citizen!
Welcome to San Francisco
City is clear, but coast is fogged in
A large group of the Lyman clan met us at the airport.  
Dinner at Shari's together before we made the 5 hour drive home!
Quilt for Levi from Gma LaVerne
Levi and Lucy...sharing breakfast food!
U. Rick and Levi....U. Rick sporting his welcome home Levi button.
The craziness begins....welcome to the family, Levi!
Before and after pictures of Faith and my white tennis shoes.  
After 2 weeks in dirty China, I think they faired pretty well!
