This summer 2013 photo shows Justin and Alana Carroll during a mission trip to put a roof on a hospital in a rural village in Zimbabwe. Justin Carroll is the proud dad of a 6-week-old daughter in Tennessee, but thus far he's done his doting via video phone calls from Africa. Since mid-November 2013, he has been living in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, refusing to leave until he gets the exit papers allowing two newly adopted sons to travel with him. "In a dire situation, we would just move there," said Alana, referring to the Congo. "Leaving our sons there is not an option." (AP Photo/Alana Carroll)
