Tiny



Jenn, our our teammate who is a nurse, brought home a baby yesterday from a Baka village called Lousu. The mother died about 2-3 weeks ago, and the baby is maybe a month old. The family doesn't really have the means to take care of the baby to bring her back to health. They are basically waiting for her to die. Jenn decided (after much prayer) to bring the baby back here for a week and see what some milk, vitamins, TLC and prayer can do. Nandry and I watched this teeny little girl today for a few hours. She weights under 3 1/2 pounds and is all skin and bones. Can you imagine?


Pray for wisdom and peace for Jenn as she makes decisions and takes care of this baby. Pray for the baby, that God will use this little life to bring Himself glory.

I think it may be time for an "after" or at least "later" photo. I just looked at this photo again, and she is a different kid now! Praise God!
