Adopted by French Families, Haitian Children Arrive in Their New Home

With the Sisters
Missionary sisters of St. Teresa wait with the children for their 105 adoptive parents. French television station France 24 reports that the children have been in the process of adoption for well over two years, with some of the parents having waited even longer. When the earthquake struck, many documents critical to the adoption processes were destroyed or lost, substantially delaying the unions of the families.
