It is so neat to have a prayer partner that lives halfway across the world. Ever since I got back from Uganda, Damalie sends me prayer requests for her family.

Since I last updated this blog, Damalie has taken in 3 more babies and many of the babies have been sick with malaria. William was hospitalized for a little while with Malaria and is now at home but still sick. All three babies were malnourished and Grace is still having trouble gaining weight.  I asked Damalie if I could share some of these emails so that more people could pray for her family. So here are some recent emails from her. Please join me in prayer for these babies, especially William who has been sick for over a month!


Dear Courtney,
Thank you for prayers. Baby William is better. He is now drinking a
little bit more.
I have 3 new babies,baby Micheal, baby William and little Grace. I now
have 15 babies. It's more than I can handle but what would Jesus do
rings in my ears always. I take them in, do my part and leave the rest
to God. He has the best plan for us. Anxiously waiting for October to see you.
Damalie

 Hello Courtney,
 How are you dear friend? We are fine except baby William. Please
 continue praying for him.
 Also there was a heavy downpour (rain) 4 days ago. Everywhere in our
little house was leaking except in the corner in our play area, if you
 remember where we lay the mattress. I was afraid and you can imagine
 all of us in one place and with loud noise from the hailstorm on the
room. I have never had such an experience before. All the babies were
 crying helplessly and for the first time I didnt know what to do. I
 mean we had to move all the beds and other things, carry babies, take
 care of clothes etc. It was chaos. Thank God the situation calmed
down.




And this morning, I woke up to this email:


Baby William has persistent malaria. I had him checked out today. All
the others had vaccinations we need prayers so that they dont cry alot
esp at night. You can imagine a house with 15 babies all crying.
Baby Micheal weighed 4.5kg at 5 weeks. Little Grace weighed 6.5kg at
at 16 months, you can imagine the differences between them. Baby
William weighed 5.7kg at 16 weeks. Please pray with us.Grace still has
a long way to go but we are loving her into good health.
Blessings
Damalie
