Our 3.5-month-old, Ephram, is having some trouble with a cow's milk protein sensitivity. We would appreciate prayer for wisdom as we navigate a modified diet, for Ephram's reactions to not be so severe, and for him to outgrow the sensitivity quickly.

Please pray for our missionary to Romania, Natalie Bridges who sent the following updates and prayer requests:

• We had our Christmas party for the orphans on January 3rd as planned and it was wonderful!  We all had so much fun!  We sang some Christmas carols, gave presents to each child and had some delicious Romanian treats for them.  The children were so happy that several of them hugged and kissed their gifts before and after opening them.  The smiles on everyone’s faces were so precious!

• Please continue to pray for the girls to get to go to school and for the workers to be kinder to the children.  Please especially pray for Cristina who is especially mean to the children.
