If I might intrude for just a moment...I need to ask for prayers for some friends of our family.

Becky and Brian were expecting their third child around February 17th; they have two sons, Adam, 4, and Noah, 18 mos. On Friday, Becky stopped feeling the baby's movements. She was induced and delivered an 8.5 pound stillborn baby boy, whom they named Jeremy. At this time, the cause of death is unknown. Jeremy's funeral is set for Wednesday.

This is a very loved couple in our church, very active in different ministries and very eager to have many children. Our whole parish is in shock. Our Moms group is planning on helping feed them and to help out with the house and children during this time (they just moved into a new house less than 3 weeks ago).

Please pray for baby Jeremy, for his mother and father, his brothers, and for his extended family. I am expecting my third child in June, and their second child is only 6 weeks older than our son. This news has shaken me up greatly and somewhat scared me (and my husband), but I feel so much pain for Becky that I am crying every time I think of her.

Thank you for your prayers, and please know you will be in mine.
