Dearest Ella, I am praying for you…don’t give up. I know you are a champion already, or else you would not be here. I pray for you with all my being, my darling…and your parents too.

🙂 I am speechless… The song is special to Lori and I (was played at our wedding). Thank you for adding to the meaning for us. Our family is praying for the three of you and the doctors. As I pray, I think of what our Lord sacrificed for all, salvation through grace the priceless gift. I take great comfort in knowing that the Father answers all prayers. We will keep praying for Ella to have a perfect surgery tomorrow, to be healed by Jesus’ love. May the Lord be in your presence tomorrow, may He guide the doctors, and may He give you comfort and strength. May His glory be revealed tomorrow. God Bless You! We love you!

Josh & Tina,
I talked to Lisa Correia tonight and she gave me this website. I am so thankful for the updates in time to pray for Ella’s surgery tomorrow. I will be up at 5:00a.m. (Pacific Time) to begin praying for Ella, you both, and the doctors and nurses as she enters into surgery.
Isaiah 40:11
He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart.
She is absolutely beautiful! It was so special to see her face after so many months of praying for her. I’ll check for updates tomorrow.
Much love for all of you.

we’re on a 31k dialup in Madang, PNG but we’re trying to stay up with her progress. I’m loading the blog sans images and cut and pasting it for offline reading.
We’ll be praying for over 7000 miles away for tomorrow’s surgery.. which should be happening in a few minutes.. we’ll start praying now!!!
The Roberts Family on August 20th, 2007 at 5:36 am #
It’s 5:30 am Pacific, and I am up early, listening to the rain and praying for Ella.
We both awakened at 3:50 AM PST and are asking and believing Ella will be healed by God’s powerful hand and he will guide Dr. Kays in all he does for our precious Grand-Daughter.
Thank you Jesus!!
Amen
