Darwin and Kirsten Paccha, AFLC members working in Ecuador, joyfully announce the birth of their son, Daniel born on January 23, 2011!
Here is what Darwin says of the delivery and birth:
“What a blessing at how quickly things progressed! Even though the timing was a little difficult because we lacked sleep (which we know will be common from now on), we realized this timing was also a blessing because we were the only ones in the hospital in the delivery area with our doctors and nurses. Everyone helping seemed more relaxed and personal. We had another answer to prayer as Daniel was delivered. We discovered that he did not drop down into the pelvis because the umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck and then around his body. Praise God for a long umbilical cord and protecting Daniel through the delivery.”
Darwin and Kirsten ask for your continued prayers: “Pray for us as we learn to be a family with Daniel. Pray for our new schedule, emotions, and responsibilities. We are thankful for God’s answer to our prayers to have a family, and now we ask that you pray with us that we would be an example of a godly family to those around us as we continue our ministry in Ecuador.”
Darwin graduated from AFLTS and Kirsten from AFLBS! Congratulations from all of us!
