New Babies!

We have some new baby faces to add to the EnGedi Family!  Abraham and his lovely wife gave birth to their third child.  The baby is a boy and his two older sisters Lydia and Leah are big helpers.  The two girls attend my pre-primary classes and Abraham does a great deal with the gardens at EnGedi.  My niece Bella is working little jobs so that she can help with Lydia's school fees.  We made a skype call while I was visiting the house.  Lydia, Leah and I could hear and see Bella but Bella could only hear us.  Still it was a precious little moment shared worlds a part!  Lydia called out while I stepped back out to the path to return home "Salimia Bella!"  Which means greet Bella! These moments always are precious and in small ways brings my worlds together!  Once again I say how marvelous Heaven will be when we are all together!  Ezra is a cute little boy and I think his father was happy to have another male in the ranks!  


Baba and Momma Hosiana welcomed twins to their family!  There was much rejoicing when these two precious faces arrived healthy and strong!  These two babies have been longed for and prayed over a great deal.  Hosiana is about eight years old and has been an only child.  Momma Hosiana has gone through many miscarriages and lost babies.  Several have been later in the pregnancies.  This momma has gone through much heartache.  My friend and teammate joined her in her prayerful battle when the discovery was made that she was carrying twins.  Emma went to her house to pray for her every week.  We joined her in the prayers for the health of this momma and her babies.  There were some few close call moments in the end but these two sweet faces are here!  A boy and a girl!  The picture below is on their very first day of life and much rejoicing continues!  Baba Hosiana was just about to bust with joy and pride!  The little girl is named after Emma and the little boy's name means prayed for.  The babies are doing well and Momma is healing nicely.  I think the family is adjusting to the fast transition to a family of 5 but very happy! These moments continue to be my most favorite ones in life no matter what country I am in.  I love getting to hold brand new babies!  Its more than just the snuggles (they are my favorite!)  I love the opportunity to whisper blessings into their new little ears, prayers spoken over their new life, and encouraging their parents on this journey of love. We rejoice with the lives of these three new precious faces!      

Prayer Points!
