We have safely arrived

Hi everyone- We have safely arrived. Today (Tuesday here) we met Jung Hyun's foster mother and Jung Hyun. He is absolutely beautiful and has obviously been well cared for. Mr. and Mrs. Lee, the foster parents, also gave us a book of pictures. Mrs. Lee said she reads the Bible to him everyday and that last Sunday their pastor prayed for him. We will be picking him up on Thursday at 3:00.
Hope you are all doing well. We are going out to roam around Seoul.
All our love-
Jared and Beth

Baptism

Hi everyone- I noticed an error on the baptism date in the e-mail I sent out
to you all. The date is May 7th but the 7th is a SATURDAY not Sunday like
I wrote. I hope to know an exact time before we leave, though I am leaning
towards 1:00. Sorry! (I am a little crazed right now).

Love- Beth

The long awaited call

Hi everyone-
We received the long awaited call today letting us know that Thomas is ready
for travel. Since we have to be in Seoul by Tuesday to pick up the baby, we
are planning on leaving Sunday morning. We will return Friday the 22nd in
the evening.

Also, we are planning on having Thomas baptized on Saturday, May 7th. We
would be honored if our family and friends could share in such a joyous
occasion. While it was our intention to send out formal invitations, this
may not occur due to our time constraints. Know that you are all welcome.

With love- Beth and Jared
