Dear Friends and Family,             

                We have been blessed and encouraged with all the love and support we have received from everyone about our adoption. We have just completed our home study and are currently putting the final touches on our dossier. Our next step is to apply to United States Customs and Immigration Services; once we are approved to bring a child into the US we will send our dossier to Ethiopia! From there, we wait for the referral of our child!

 Right now our only obstacle is raising the financing for this adoption. We have had several fundraisers and Drew has been trying to get extra hours at work. Thankfully we raised enough money to pay for our home study and our USCIS application. We are now onto a new fundraiser to submit our dossier. We need roughly $7700 in order to submit our dossier before it expires.  We are now eligible to apply for grants, however due to the processing time of grants we will not be able to use that money until later stages in the adoption.  We do not yet know how God will provide this money, but we do know that He called us to adopt and He will be faithful to provide for us.  We would like you to consider continuing to support and encourage our ministry. We are selling t-shirts for $30 each. We have specifically designed shirts for you that will be a visual reminder of our adoption to bring encouragement and support, not only to our family but also to raise general awareness of adoption.  We need to collect orders by Wednesday, August 1^st. Shirts are available in standard men’s sizes S-3XL.  You can email your order to brittanyhashley@gmail.com and mail a check to Brittany Hashley 11350 High Timber Drive, Indianapolis, IN 46235. We need orders by August 1^st please.

We are beyond excited to have gotten this far in our adoption and we are trusting God to bring us through to the end. God has a plan for our family and for the child He will bring to us. We know that His timing is perfect and we wait for it with excitement.  For more information on our adoption please visit our blog hashleyfamily.blogspot.com. Thank you for your encouragement.

Drew, Brittany, and Juliette Hashley
