Please be in prayer for a young couple in our church who delivered their baby at 23 weeks. Little Pierce weighed in at 1 pound 8 ounces! He is the tiniest thing I have ever seen. He reflects the beauty and creativity of our great God, perfectly formed and lovely in His sight. He is stable, but the doctors have warned them there is only about a 35-40% survival rate with infants his size. It has been a roller coaster for Nik and Lindsay since she went into unexpected labor tuesday, and Pierce was born.
In the hospital on the walls of the NICU unit are pictures of a lot of the most pre-mature babies that have survived. Ken and I have been praying that little Pierce would be on that wall someday as a testimony of the grace of God. Pierce will be the youngest to have survived from this unit. Please pray. Nik and Lindsay are incredibly strong in their faith and are holding on to the only one who has life and death in His hands. If Pierce survives he will be in the hospital at least until August. The whole experience is daunting to say the least.
They are keeping a blog of posts to keep everyone informed and praying. Please go to
