Thankful Thursday

For the yearly prayer shower at our church. Each January our church honors the babies born or adopted the year before. They hand out 4×6 cards in advance and all the families of the church are encouraged to write a prayer or favorite verse for the children. Then they put them in a photo album for the children to have as a keepsake. Last weekend was the actual prayer shower with breakfast and all the women of the church are invited and any female relatives. After breakfast each mom introduces their child and one person in the room prays for the child. It’s a wonderful blessing to be a part of. At the end when everyone said amen Amelie shouted out loud and clear “AMEN!!!!”

The moms and babies. We missed the couple that were out due to sickness, but we still prayed for them.
