June 6th, I got a call while at New Hope. CDA
(child development agency, like dcfs in the states) had
a 2 week old little boy at the hospital and they needed
someone to take him in while they figured out his
family situation.
I had a team that week, and a team of 50 coming in the
next week, plus 2 interns that were arriving, and an
audiology team.
But when God commands you to go... you go
So we gladly opened our home and hearts to
En Gedi's first visitor.
Welcome Jordain Daniel Morgan!
aka Baby J
Neiah was beyond excited that Jesus sent us a
baby. She was able to go with me to pick him
up, and instantly became my 'big' helper
She was always willing to hold baby J
so I could get things done, and loved
reading stories to him.
His first Sunday to church
What most of his days consisted of.
When he arrived he was so tiny (and a little malnurished)
but by the time he left he had beautiful chunker cheeks.
The face that was made after you kissed on his cheeks
We were blessed with the opportunity to run alongside
Baby J for a month before CDA was able to help his
family get everything figured out so he could be returned
to them.
It was hard to watch Him go, but we Praise God
for the opportunity to love and care for him in the
time he was with us.
Please pray for Baby J and his bio family as
they transition into this new normal, and that above
all else God's will will be done in their lives.
