Passport Woes...not at all a good day..they need encouragment

My daughter left the orphanage in tears tonight. They have been refused a passport for Elia unless they go to Mexico City (which will take 2 to 3 more months) because they are "North American"...There is NO other reason!!!! All of the papers are there and in order but they refuse to give Elia her passport from Nogales Mexico..which is a Border town and caught up in all the Immigration stuff happening these last two weeks. From the orphanage they somehow got to talk to The Mexican Consolate on the Nogales AZ side of the border before coming home. He ( a mexican himself) said...All the paperwork is fine. There is no reason to NOT get a passport....What they need to do to see him tomorrow is to get an escort across the border with Elia...They will fingerprint them all...and do her passport right then and there. Sounds easy enough...well 2 weeks ago it wouldn't even have been necessary ...as they would not have been called North Americans and told NO go to Mexico City!!!!Prayer request is ,,,that they will be able to find an escort tomorrow to take Elia to the Mexican Consolate on the US side of the border. They will not be able to carry her across the line either way...they will have to turn her over to the escort and meet them at the Consolate etc...then get her back on the other side of the border to bring her back to the orphanage. If they can get this done, she will get her passport tomorrow.They are expecting the paperwork from the National Visa Center in New Hampshire to be in Juarez by next week for sure. It was the Consolate in Juarez that told them to go ahead and get the passport done this week. Once they have the passport, they trade it for the Visa in Juarez and can take her home...This passport (in the middle of all this immigration stuff) has got a small family of 3 innocent people trapped in national problems not at all of their making. Please pray for my daughter, son-in-law and grandbaby Elia... Thank You so very much.
