Jabez



This morning around 9:30 AM, Jabez Joseph Jn Baptiste aka Jabez Matthew Pye went to be with Jesus. He was surrounded by his mother and father as he took his last breath. Please pray for the Pye family, HCH children as we weep, rejoice, and remember his 3 years on this earth. His funeral will be Friday. Again please pray for us during this difficult time.

We only met Jabez the one time when he was 6 weeks old or so on a mission trip to Kapotye, but he's had such an impact on our life these three years. We think of him often and watch the newsletters for word of him. We're so sorry to hear of his death, but are comforted to know that he is happy and healthy and loved in Heaven! Know that people are holding all of you up in prayer through this difficult time.

Jabez was a newborn when I spent a week at your mission in Seguin. At that point his future was really uncertain, and I can remember being so excited later when I heard that you'd been able to adopt him. I'm SO grateful to the Lord that He allowed you to provide an amazing home and plenty of love to Jabez for these 3 yrs. Definitely praying for you...

I found your blog through another, and just wanted to tell you how sorry I am. May God hold you all close and give you the comfort and the grace to walk this road that only he can give.

I am walking down the road of losing a child too, and I will keep you in my prayers.

Our prayers and hearts go out to your family. We too, had to bury our baby. It has been five years, but it seems like yesterday, every day. God is merciful and Graceful. He knows our steps when we do not.

Nick and Gwenn I am deeply saddened for your loss. I don't keep up with all the blogs and emails as I should and I just found out yesterday as part of the team going to Cheppema. Tragic losses have been part of my family and two of them were a loss of a newborn this year and a murder of my 20 year old cousin a few years back, so I know even words cannot soothe. My heart speaks to yours in silence and my prayers continue to reach out to you and your family.
