I'm assuming 3am Eastern is 2am CST, right? So I'll take that one (2-3 here, 3-4 Eastern time).

Emily is at CST. I'm in tears reading about this. I can't even begin to describe to you what a wonderful witness to life Emily is. I'm really privileged to know her in person. And, yes, they really, really need prayers.

Please put me down for 1pm. What time zone should we be praying? If I'm down for 1pm, is that for Emily's time zone or for EST?

KC I've just popped you in for 1pm EST? Will that work for you?

Please give Emily our love, when you speak to her next!

I can pray at 4am EST. That would be 9:00 GMT if I am not mistaken.

Maria, we haven't slotted you in anywhere as yet, but I've now gone back in to that orginal post and highlighted in red what is now left.

I just didn't feel confident to give you a time that might not suit..only 5 hours left to fill now, yeah!

I'll take the 11AM time slot for Emily and family (that is 11AM EST?) It's that time right now so I will be offering up the next hour for them all!

Even though I pray for her all day, I will take the official 5pm spot. KC is so right. Emily is such a wonderful witness to life and I know she will be overwelmed when she reads that so many are praying for her and Matthew.
I spoke to her last night around 6pm CST and I hope she doesn't mind me updating a little. They checked the amniotic fluid levels and they had gone down a little (apparently this fluxuates throughout the day) and Matthew's heart rate was steady and at a good rate. They have told her not to leave the area but don't want to see her again until Thursday (why on earth they want to wait that long I have no idea!) So basically Emily and her dh are sitting there just waiting. She really can't do much for fear that her water will break and she will have to call 911 to get to the hospital because of risk of cord prolapse with so much fluid. She also can't go home. So now they are trying to decide the best plan for her 5 children at home (dh's parents are there with them right now).
I know they appreciate all the prayers for them!

I'm praying, even though I don't have an official spot...I was thinking this morning as I was reading about Mother Teresa that we have our own inspiration right here in Emily and her family. She's said so many times here that she's just trusting in God...so simple and yet so difficult.

She's blessed us all...it's a privilege to give back a little by praying for her and Matthew.

I added the last two updates on Melinda's original post - that fills in all the spots. My heart sings at the generosity of all of you!!! And I know there are others who offer hidden prayers that are just as valuable!!!

Melinda,
This generous idea was inspired!! Thank you for organizing us!!

As a mother who has traveled this identical road 9 years ago, I can tell you that prayer is sustaining, and often the pain is so great or overwhelming that you are unable to articulate prayers for yourself! What a tremendous consolation and gift is offered to Emily and her family here!

Jess,
I am so very grateful for the update!!!!! Waiting is so very hard, and I'm certain the weight of wondering how best to accomodate the other children is very heavy!!!

Please, if Emily doesn't mind, keep returning to offer us updates when you can.

Praying with all of these beautiful and dear ladies, Emily!

I thought I'd add that if others want to take a spot that is already filled, that it would be great to have extra coverage. As busy moms, we are sometimes called away from prayer into action. It would be good to know that hours are covered if I'm immersed in dirty diapers-ville!

So, if you feel led to volunteer for a time/spot we certainly still add!!!!
