Dear Friends,
I am overjoyed to share the news that Elizabeth and Mike Foss are expecting their 8th gift from Heaven in late September. What a blessed baby he or she is to be sent to such a family!
Elizabeth needs prayers though. An early sonogram revealed yesterday that the baby had a twin who has already gone home to be with God. Please pray for Elizabeth during this truly bittersweet time, and pray for the continued health of her precious little one.
Our Lady of Guadalupe, patroness of the unborn, pray for us!
St. Gerard Majella, patron of expectant mothers, pray for us!

Dear Elizabeth and family,
Our prayers are with you as you both celebrate this new life and yet mourn the passing of your baby's twin. This happened to me, too, Elizabeth with my 4th pregnancy. It was diagnosed with a sono at about 10 weeks. I went on to have a healthy and happy baby boy named John Paul. It is a bittersweet time for you, I know, but be assured of my continued prayers for your health and for the baby's as well....
Our Lady of Guadalupe, St. Gerard, pray for Elizabeth and her growing family!
