Dear friends,
It’s our great joy to introduce you to our daughter, Elena Grace.
Born September 22nd

Thank you for your prayers throughout our pregnancy and upon her arrival. She is our latest and greatest blessing from God! We are spending our days thanking Him for her and getting to know each other.
Your continuous prayers, support and encouragement during these past 7+ years on the mission field has also been a great blessing to us. Please continue to keep our family in your prayers… here are a few things we are praying about, we welcome you to join us:
- Praise and thanksgiving for Elena Grace, her health, and Jamielynn’s health
- For the safe arrival of Elena Grace to the waters of Holy Baptism on October 8th
- That all goes smoothly in each step of the necessary paperwork process for us to return home to the Dominican Republic
- For safe travels, endurance, patience, and peace for Rafael as he travels to and from the DR to continue ministry and also be with and support our little family
- For strength, endurance, and success for Jamielynn upon setting up visits and sharing the story of God’s mission during a time of home service and support raising following her maternity leave
