Uwe and Hannelore Romeike came to the United States in 2008 seeking political asylum. They fled their German homeland in the face of religious persecution for homeschooling their children.
They wanted to live in a country where they could raise their children in accordance with their Christian beliefs.
The Romeikes were initially given asylum, but the Obama administration objected claiming that German laws that outlaw homeschooling do not constitute persecution.
The goal in Germany is for an open, pluralistic society, the Justice Department wrote in a legal brief last year. Teaching tolerance to children of all backgrounds helps to develop the ability to interact as a fully functioning citizen in Germany.
On Monday, the Supreme Court declined to hear the Romeikes appeal paving the way for the Christian family of eight to be deported.

Update from Michael Farris’ facebook page:
BREAKING NEWS!!! The Romeikes can stay!!!
Today, a Supervisor with the Department of Homeland Security called a member of our legal team to inform us that the Romeike family has been granted “indefinite deferred status”. This means that the Romeikes can stay in the United States permanently (unless they are convicted of a crime, etc.)
This is an incredible victory that can only be credited to our Almighty God.
We also want to thank those of who spoke up on this issue—including that long ago White House petition. We believe that the public outcry made this possible while God delivered the victory.
This is an amazing turnaround in 24 hours. Praise the Lord.
Proverbs 21: 1 “The king’s heart is like a stream of water directed by the Lord, He guides it wherever He pleases.”
Very very good news.
Sanity comes to the top...........
Amen and amen!
