May 4, 2010

We are blessed to announce the birth of our daughter, Gabriella Jean Anasco. She was born at 6:20p on Tuesday May 4, 2010. The delivery was challenging, and the challenges continue. Gabriella is currently in NICU and will likely remain for the next several days. There is an issue with her red blood cells the requires more care. We are trying to visit her as often as we can, usually three times a day. Fortunately they let siblings into the NICU so we can all visit her together as a family.

Please pray for Gabriella for her full recovery and continued development. I will post more pictures soon.

In February we were promoted as the Vice Presidents of Equipp...

I call it a missionary factory. Chris and I were directors of this internship in the Philippines, Thailand, and the US. Recently I traveled to the Philippines to equip and empower Jeff Weimert  and Ryan Hull  to be the directors of the ...

Departing

Leaping off the Leadership Development post, I have some somewhat sad news. Chris and the kids will be leaving for the States this Saturday. They leave for Manila on Friday, and then fly onward to the States on Saturday, arriving in Baltimore around midnight (Maryland time) Saturday evening. Why is this sad? My responsibilities with the internship require me to say in Iloilo until the internship is completed. I will be returning to the States March 23. We have never been apart as a family for so long. Honestly I am very much not looking forward to being away from my family. I am not looking at this as a "break" from my kids so I can finally do some "real ministry." I am willing to fulfill my responsibilities here in Iloilo, especially as it involves training future full-time missionaries. However, I am not at all looking forward to being apart from my most favorite people in the world. The reason why Chris needs to leave for the States at this time is beca...
