Thanks for Prayers (that was close)

I am writing to share an update and to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your prayers. I truly believe they made all the difference, though the path to a happy ending was far more stressful and frightening than we ever imagined. Re Prayers please

Following some wise advice, Lucy decided to go to the local police in the hope of expediting the final part of their process. However, when the officers reviewed their documentation, they identified an issue with the paperwork they had been given. The situation escalated quickly, and Lucy was immediately arrested. She was told she could face imprisonment for two to eight years.

As you can imagine, the stress was unbearable. She called me in a panic, saying, "Come and see me, I might not be allowed to leave the country, I might be imprisoned!"

Then, what felt like a miracle happened. The police shift changed. The new officer who came on duty reviewed the case, looked at all the paperwork, stamped it, and simply said, "Go on, off you go." They were free to leave.

I immediately went to pick them up, and we began the long journey to the ferry. We drove through the night from 6 PM on Tuesday, finally arriving in Hamburg at 8 AM Wednesday so that Jania could see his son for the first time in two years—a beautiful, emotional moment after such an ordeal.

After a couple of hours of rest, we embarked on the final six-and-a-half-hour leg to the ferry terminal. We arrived safely in the UK on Thursday morning, and we are profoundly relieved and grateful to report that his visa was accepted.

It was an incredibly stressful and exhausting journey, but they are now finally here and safe.

Thank you again for your prayers and your support. We truly felt carried through this storm, and we are so grateful to have this chapter behind us.

With love and thanks,
