Remember a few weeks ago I mentioned that I was going to be there for the birth of Angele’s baby?

Well, Angele is 36 weeks pregnant and because of eclampsia it is medically necessary for her to be induced tomorrow, September 25th.

While being 36 weeks is pretty far along, it is still early. However, the risks of waiting to have the baby even a couple days from now is not worth the health risk it would be to Angele to prolong the pregnancy any longer.

Please pray for Angele and her husband, Josh, as Angele is induced tomorrow.
<ol><li>Angele’s cervix is completely closed and the baby is “high up”. Pray Angele’s body responds well to the induction tomorrow and a C-section is not necessary.</li><li>Pray for Baby Lilianna. Pray she is healthy and will not need to be in the NICU for any reason.</li><li>Pray that Lilianna will be able to stay with Angele after birth to nurse and that Lilianna will be able to leave the hospital when Angele leaves. </li><li>Josh and Angele will pick me up in the morning at 6am and I will be there for the birth. Pray that God will allow me to help Angele in any way I can as she is nervous about all going well tomorrow. </li></ol><p>Words cannot adequately express the gratitude I have for being allowed to witness the miracle of new life entering the world tomorrow. </p><p>We certainly all wish this was happening a week or two from now, but we must trust that God is ultimately in control here and His faithfulness will carry us through.</p><p>Prayer Warriors, thank you for praying. We covet your prayers for tomorrow!</p><p>I will update tomorrow as I can.</p>
