Please pray for the McCourtney Family

Summer and Zane McCourtney with their 13 children are going through a difficult season in their lives.  We have know Summer and Zane for many years and till now their hearts and lifes were forever going to be in Uganda.  However, God has a way of changing things and so I have copied a part of their blog post to our blog so you can see what is going on.  If you would like to keep up to date with their progress to move back to the US then you can visit them at www.fromglory2glory.blogspot.com  please pray for them with regards to their adopted children.  They are working through the minefield of officials and government offices in two countries so that the family can live all together in the States.  This is a complicated process and, as far as we know, has never been done before.  Thankfully we serve a Heavenly Father who has all the keys to make it work.  I leave you with their blogpost from 23/7/12 to give you a bit of a insight into the situation.  If you think of them please pray!

What I can share.

What I can share..."this was not the plan." Summer being in Oregon while Zane and eleven of our thirteen children remain behind in Northern, Uganda. What we thought would be a short term separation has turned into something much more. The Lord has not revealed all of the details, but we would ask for your prayers and intercession. Mountains, huge mountains, are going to need to be moved. The cattle on a thousand hills that God speaks of in Psalm 50:10...well, he just might have to sell about 100 head.

What I can share...hearts will need to be soft towards our families unique situation, from the High Court Judge to the children's living relatives.

What I can share...it was determined, through a series of new blood tests, that Summer does indeed have Lyme's Disease as well as Vitamin D deficiency. There is also suspicion that she is still being plagued by parasites. Right now she is taking two different antibiotics and high doses of vitamin D. Side effects are common. In three weeks time Summer will return to the Naturopath for yet another drug to be introduced, this one is meant to target the Lyme's Disease spirochetes. Would you please pray for Summer's body, she is very weak and frail.
