“Now, our God, we give you thanks, and praise your glorious name.” 1 Chronicles 29:13

I have been very surprised to see the ornaments and garlands being put up in the last few days. Doesn’t everyone know that it is Thanksgiving month? Well, anyway, Thanksgiving is a time that reminds us how much God has given us that we do not deserve. What a blessing it is to be a part of The O'Connor House and be His hands in giving some of those blessings to the residents here.

One of our greatest blessings here is to see new lives. Just before midnight on Saturday, a little baby girl was born. Janiah Nicole weighed in at 7 pounds 10 ounces and stretched out to 20 inches long. She is a great sleeper! What a delight it is to meet her after months of waiting! Please pray for her and her mom as they continue to adjust.

We welcomed Janiah this week, but we have also been saying good bye, as our resident Angelica is moving into her new apartment. Please be praying for her and her soon-to-be-born baby as they settle in to this new adventure.

Also, please continue to pray for the residents that are still here, that they would see the Lord Jesus’s hand in their lives. Also be praying for Mandy as she will begin the process of interviewing prospective residents.

Thank you for your faithfulness to this ministry in prayer, finances, volunteering, and more. We are so thankful for you!

Blessings,
