Double Baby Shower

A week ago Sunday we had a Double Baby Shower at Nueva Vida en Cristo.  What a fun time of games, devotional and opening gifts!  It was a joy to see the church folk demonstrate so much love to these two families.  You may remember Fransisco and Sonya.  They are the couple that lost a baby nearly a year ago.  God blessed again and this past week, Kevin Emanuel was born!  We barely got the baby shower in before he got here!  Lizbet and her husband Daniel, the other couple that is expecting, have been a blessing to have in our church.  They came to our church with their marriage ready to end.  They've both come to know the Lord and are now expecting their second.  That's right!  They have a son Diego that is almost 14!  This is the second family in our church that has a big age gap and they too just had a baby in November.  We are expecting little Daniela to arrive any day now!  It was fun to buy both girl and boy gifts for the shower.  In thirteen months our church has had a growth spurt in the nursery of 4 babies!!!!!  This is so exciting and fun for the church.  There are plenty of babies to hold when you get to church!  Our church is also going to have two weddings this summer!  One in June and one in July right before we leave for furlough.  Sam is enjoying doing two premarriage classes during the week in preparation for these weddings.  Pray that these couples and families will continue to strive to please God in everything.
