Asking for fasting & prayers for Brazil visas

So it looks like there are a lot of missionaries heading for Brazil that are having problems getting their visas.  Some missionaries are even ending up in the states for 5+ months before their visas finally come through.  Please add to your prayers and fasting that all the missionaries heading to Brazil will get their visas in time to go directly there.  Thanks!

Visa and Passport Work Update

We got Adam's passport and have been working on the Visa papers.  So much work to do, it is crazy.  We are now just waiting for the notarized copies of Adam's priesthood ordinations and Seminary transcripts.  Also, we have to get a letter from the local police department stating Adam is in good standing in the community.  That was interesting, we went to the Buckley Police Department and they weren't quite sure what to do with us.  Finally, they decided their records person would be the one to handle this and then they said she was on vacation for a week.  That wasn't a very successful trip, oh well, at least almost everything else is done.
