It's Raining Babies!!

Lisa called the Social Welfare Officer this morning to check on the status of a baby in Mzimba (about 40 miles from here) that was possibly in need of our services.  Well, no news on that baby, but there were two others at Central Hospital that we need to assist.  Samson is a newborn (2weeks old) whose mother died at birth.  The grandmother who is caring for him is aging and not able to afford formula.  Jacob is 6 weeks old and was abandoned in the market by his mentally ill mother, who now can’t be found.  The hospital staff was kind enough to care for him.  So, the next stop is the carpenters where the fourth crib is supposed to be finished today (the Lord’s timing is perfect).  And then there’s always that baby in Mzimba…
