An Update on Amanda

Hey friends and family.  I just wanted to thank you for praying for us.  The delivery of our new baby went really well.   However, after the birth, Amanda had some bad hemorrhaging. It was actually quite scary for us.  Thankfully, they were able to get the bleeding stopped after a VERY painful procedure.  She is quite sore, but seems to be recovering.    

Please pray that the rest of her recovery would be quick and relatively painless ... and thank God for such a handsome, happy, baby boy!  

Grace and peace.

Jonathan

A Couple Prayer Requests

I have a couple prayer requests for you my friends, family and curious ones.

1.  Camp is very quickly approaching and the time is closing for completing last minute tasks.  Unfortunately, if you have not heard there has been a string of injuries on our camp management staff.   Because of the huge amount of work that needs to be done, we have been frantically trying to maintain pace with volunteers and non-management staff so that we will be ready.  Please pray that God would heal our management staff quickly and completely.   Also pray for volunteers.  We have all kinds of jobs that could use help:::  skilled and unskilled, any day of the week.  If you would like to volunteer, give me a call or email me and we'll get you set up with something to do.   Please pray!

2.  We are very close to having our baby.  I don't know when exactly, but we have been on the verge for the last several days.  Please pray for protection over the baby and Amanda.  Pray that she would deliver quickly and without complication.  Also, since we live about a 1/2 hour away from the hospital, please pray we get to there with adequate time, but not too much time.

Next time I write here,  I will most likely be reporting the birth of our new baby.

Thanks for your prayer and support.
