The Lord gives and the Lord takes away

Praise the Lord for the safe delivery of Shirley's baby boy. He was born Saturday on the way (!) to the hospital. I haven't heard the details yet. They have said that they want to give the baby up for adoption, but so far they haven't gotten through on the phone to the orphanages we told them about. I wonder how they feel now that the baby is here? Shirley is staying with Samuel's Mom for now.

Late that night, Ecdes' (our helper who lives on our property) sister died. She was very sick (I think I asked you to pray). She lived out in the country with Ecdes' parents, about 5 hours awaay. They had been told a few weeks ago by the doctors that they didn't know what was wrong with her. He was very sad, of course, and he went out there to be with is family for a while.
