VISA

So I applied for my Australian Temporary Student Visa on Saturday. The process did not take as long as I thought it would, but every time I went to go pay for the Visa it would kick me back a few pages and say that it was unable to process the Visa. This, of course, got me worried and concerned, but it was pointed out to me that it was Sunday there and possibly Daylight savings...so the computers might be acting funny. So I waited to that evening (after a fun night with the 20's group from church). I came home and at around 1am our time I put the application through and there were no problems. I was so excited! The next day, I slept through my alarm and made it to church late, but I made it. I got home later that night after a lovely baby shower and cleaning my wonderful friends house (YAY FOR BABY GRIFFIN). I check my email and what do you think I might find? I AM APPROVED TO GO TO AUSTRALIA with a student Visa! Praise God! In less then 24 hours and I have an answer to the prayers of myself and many others. I was so stressed because when the youth group applied for their Russian Visas we only got them days before we left due to issues with letters, taking a long time at the embassy, etc. This has been the easiest process for a Visa ever and I feel so blessed. SO THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO HAS BEEN PRAYING. I am now one more step closer to making it to Australia in July!
