We knew (but had forgotten) that the Ethiopian courts close for 6-8 weeks every fall. This dramatically affects, and almost halts, referrals from coming through.
"The Ethiopian court system closes down for about 6 weeks at the end of every summer to coincide with the Ethiopian New Year. Typically this closure extends from mid-August through the entire month of September. The first cases after the closure are usually heard the first or second week in October."
Sooooo because the courts are closed, we are going to be delayed for a few months.
It was good to be reminded today from a few people that God has the right time for our family and current kids, for our son, and their brother to come home. Trusting in that.
