About Me

coleennolan@gmail.com ... I am grateful beyond words, first and foremost, for the grace poured out to me in Christ - His love, forgiveness and freedom found only at the Cross of Calvary. I am so thankful for the wonderful life He has given to me as a wife to Bill, and mother of three so far... Kelly, Karly, and our sweet Kourtny, adopted from China in April of 2007.

The long road to Zacapa...



























Well, my friends, we had our bags outside at 4:30 - a wee bit early for me, actually. We arrived at Zacapa at three in the afternoon. I praise God for the super people on this trip, because we sure do spend a lot of time on the bus together!! Look at the 115 children that met us there. Positively precious. Please pray for each one. Check out that rainbow, wouldja??

I am posting pics only as long as my battery holds out - outlet issues - even with the converter. (Yes, I can hear you, Bill, saying "Then why did we spend 50 bucks on that kit?" Ha! Just love me!)

It's probably a blessing that I can't write very much, because my emotions are all over the place. Each day I am more broken, which is exactly what I prayed for. In the mix of crushing pain and quiet rage that I feel, I have fallen more in love with these children that I had ever thought possible.

Good night and God bless.
