Prayer Request for Hannah

This afternoon we're going back to the pediatrician. We went for the first time last week, and we're expecting to see some good progress by both girls as they gain weight and size. Hannah has really been a fighter. Both girls are living miracles after surviving their rough start to life, but Hannah has proved especially resilient. We'll be sure to update you with their statistics after our visit.
What's pressing right now is our problem of feeding Hannah. As we've said before, she is lactose intolerant and her body can't tolerate normal formulas that use cow's milk. We've been getting goat's milk for her and we're waiting on a shipment of soy milk formula from the US. That shipment hasn't arrived yet and the goat's milk we're able to get isn't enough. We were able to get a surplus one time but that ran out yesterday. As of this moment, we don't have enough to feed her for the rest of the day. I'm trying to find other sources of goat's milk, but that hasn't been fruitful yet. Please continue to pray for finding food for Hannah, so she can continue on the good progress she's made so far.

Hi, my name is Debbie Pogue. I work at Fairhaven Church here in Centerville, OH and get your updates via email from the district C&MA office.

I just wanted you to know I am praying for you and your little darlings. They are adorable. I have a miracle baby myself - not a baby anymore, we just took Sarah off to college in GA last week - Sarah was born 4 weeks premature, 18 years ago and actually was resuscitated 7 times in transport to the Children's Medical Center here in Dayton. She is a healthy young lady now and standing firm in her faith in Jesus Christ on the campus of Berry College in Rome, GA. I say all that to say that you must believe God can do all things and know that you have the priviledge of raising these two treasures in the love and knowledge of God and all he has for us.

I will continue to pray for you and Miriam and Hannah and that the soy formula gets there in plenty of time. I'm sure you are both blessings to those you are ministering to there.

Thank you for your service,

Debbie Pogue
