wonderful news!!! please keep us in prayer

My friends at SI,

Last saturday my wife Miriam (Mim) found out that she was pregnant, and we are to have our first child, praise the Lord, for this incredible gift, what a tremendous responsibilty, and privilege, that the Lord would send us this little one.

We've got a feeling he will be a son, but God be praised either way, we will most likely have to move thus need a new place to live, so please pray for the enduring health of our child, and a new place to live, but mostly that we would bring him up in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus, this will be a great time for the Lord to be glorified in our lives, we have a little money but we cannot put faith in the bank, but in the Lord.

So i ask for prayer for our childs health, Mim's health, my sanity :-P but mostly thank the Lord with me for this incredible gift.

may the Lord be glorified in these next monthes, she is due in may 2007.

with love

matt and mim

yay, rejoice, congrats, praise Him!

will pray :)

Praise God!

This is wonderful news, and I heartily congratulate you! Your news brought real gladness to my heart. I pray God's blessings upon this child and upon you and your precious wife. This is a very exciting time and a wonderful reason to lift our Father's name in joyous praise!

Hallelujah!!!

Congratulations, Matt and Mim! I will be praying!

Congrats Matt and Mim. May God grant you both the grace and wisdom to shape this little arrow straight and true for the Lord's bow.

In Christ,

Ron

God bless you, Matt & wife. You will be on a journey that will go on and on and on and it will be a very interesting one.

I have told our oldest son I have often wondered who raises who: the parent the child or the child the parent? He suggested it works both ways. And I agree.

May God bless ALL of you with good health and an easy delivery.

Dear Matt. Congratulations! How sweet! I can see that you are thrilled and I know that our great God will be faithful to give you all the grace you need to be a wonderful father. Love, Dian.
