Paula Jarot shared the many hurdles of adoption of Sivy and Sopheak - all of which had been declared impossible by the Cambodian, Thai and US Embassies. Their story exemplies faith and trust -just get out of the way and let God do the work!

The Jarots invited friends to Aurora Christian School Thursday, June 26. Both Sopheak and Sivy spoke. Sivy performed a Khmer (Cambodian) dance. This picture shows Sivy in one of the many graceful positions of an Asian dance routine.
