Please join us in praying at 3:00 pm (central time) for our beautiful children
affected by trisomy 13, other genetic syndromes, as well any birth defects. For
those of us who are Christian, 3:00 is known to be the hour of mercy. We ask God
to shower his mercy, once again as he did at Calvary, upon our children, and all
children - our families, and all families.
The 3:00 hour is also special because "3" is the special genetic signature for
all persons with a trisomy syndrome. We can join together at 3:00 in our hearts,
wherever we may be, to express our gratitude for having been blessed with our
special children in a prayer of praise. We can ask for blessings for our
children, all children, and one another at this time, knowing that all over the
world other parents are praying too. We share a communion of solidarity, a
vision of hope, and memories of beautiful babies and children.

Our prayer:
Thank you dear Lord Jesus, for the gift of our children. You have graced us
beyond our comprehension. Please guide us in the care of these Treasures. Give
us wisdom to make the best decisions for them. Give us patience and charity so
that we can advocate for your precious ones. Give us fortitude, so that we will
not give up before it is time. Give us peace when our hearts our troubled with
worry. Bless our children with all that they need in this life.
And for our children who have gone to be with You, thank you for holding them in
eternity as tenderly as we held them on earth. |
Bless all of the
little babies in this world, each is a special gift to us whether a part of our
life for merely a minute or for years. Each gives us a special joy, each shares
their special talents. May each of them be protected by angels, may each of them
be given a chance to reach their potential. May health providers be reminded
that all life has value, each life counts and all parents have the right to
choose the chance for life for their child no matter what the diagnosis. The
only one that knows what is to be is God, and he in his time reveals his plan to
us even though we may not understand it at the time.

Prayer Request!
Please pray for Bryson Nault. He was having a series
of Central Apnea Episodes yesterday and it's also thought that his heart had
stopped. His Daddy, Travis did CPR and got him breathing again, got the heart
and circulation going and he seems to be okay now. It was really scary as it
took some time to get him to come back around. Please keep his worried Mommy &
Daddy in your prayers. God works miracles everyday through prayer. |

Please pray for Mia Maria Abernathy. She was born on May 2, 2008 although she
was scheduled for a c-section birth on the 13th. We were so excited. Expecting a
healthy baby we were stunned to find out that she has Trisomy 13. We hope to
bring her home soon and we are praying for a miracle. I am her Godmother Auntia
Rita. |

Hi there,
I am the mother of Christina Andresen and the Grandmother of
Zoey born just 15 days ago I can say that there is
no doubt in my mind that the power of prayer has blessed our family with this
precious, perfect little angel. I am humbled from the experience of the out pour
of love & prayer from people that don’t even know us, just because a friend or
co-worker has offered up prayer for Zoey. Even children of friends have reported
having their class openly pray! My very own 4 ½ year old Grandson in pre-school
prays with his fellow day care friends & teachers daily. The pastor & his wife
that run the daycare came to the hospital daily to offer support, love and
especially prayer.
Such an amazing gift that we all at one time or another have taken for granted
or not participated in and yet look at its power. I am so very blessed to have
all of this gifted freely and as a result, we have Zoey. Every breath she takes,
every little milestone she reaches, every time I hold her and can nuzzle her and
say “You are safe, and loved so much! Gramma loves you so much”, is a BLESSING
that I appreciate every day!
Thank you to everyone, and if I may send out blessings to all that wish to
receive them, then here they are. Blessings & prayers of strength for the
challenging times, and the power to appreciate the little blessings received
every day! Warmly,
Susan Hays, San Jose, CA |

Please pray for my cousin and his wife. (She was pressured to terminate her
trisomy 13 child. Her mother could not see the point in "wasting" her fertile
years carrying a "defective" baby.) It really is so sad. My cousin so
wanted this baby, but his wife just kind of gave up. |
