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!

One might wonder what he got himself into, upon seeing these wonderful characters in the Lyman Family

But...Mr. Levi seems to be taking it all in stride!  
  

After being home a little more than a month, he seems at ease and is fitting right in with the Lymans.  No, he has not yet played "Chubby Bunny" with marshmallows, and he "NO LIKE" the application on the phone that makes your face look fat!  But he is pretty good at charades, and he does not shy away from new places or situations.  He walks in with confidence!  Like the food, he is usually willing to try something once!  He is getting good at being a bossy big brother...always for their safety, right?  Well, he is catching on to teasing, and Amie, who has not at all taken to another person directing her, (let alone her parents), and she is certain to let him know of her displeasure.  It is about time for a computer chat regarding....to tease or not to tease!  

He does take instruction well....very willing and driven to learn.
Always jumping in to help with whatever needs doing!
Will have to do another entry on his openness to the things of God and the Bible!  
We are blessed to have him!  Our Son!
