Update on FCA Sextuplets

Update 6/29: Two of the Morrison Sextuplets continue to fight for their lives. Another of their little daughters passed on 6/24. The couple has released a statement that "althought the times are difficult, their faith remains strong." Don't forget to keep them high on your prayer priority list. I'll update you as news comes in.

Update 6/21: Yet another Morrison baby has passed away. Words alone cannot express the pain this couple must be feeling. The three remaining children (1 boy and 2 girls) continue to need our prayers.

Ryan and Brianne Morrisohave suffered the loss of two of their six babies born on June 10. The babies were only 22 weeks gestational and weighed 11 ounces to 1 pound and 3 ounces. They gave birth to 4 boys and 2 girls. Two boys and two girls remain in critical condition. They need time to have their organs develop.

Although tiny, babies of 22 weeks have survived with increasing frequency. With today's medical care, the power of prayer, the love of their parents, and the intervention of God's power, these children have a lot going for them. We mourn along with the Morrison's on the loss of their two sons. Let's continue to lift up the Morrison babies and family in prayer as they trust in the Lord for His will.

Sextuplets Born to FCA Mom

The babies pictured here are someone elses, but, these we claim as our own. The mom (Brianna) is daughter to Pastors Brent and Melonie Balkan of Lighthouse Christian Church in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin.

Although the website hasn't been updated yet, the babies have come, all six of them. They are as small as they are premature,weighing from 11 ounces to just over a pound. They need our prayers and support.

You can read about their incredible story here and find out how you can help them during this exciting but tenuous time.

Many of you know Brianna from her days at the FCA camp. You probably remember her mom and dad as they were the camp directors and provided the worship experiences of camp for many years. My own children benefitted from this wonderful families witness and ministry.

Please include this couple and their babies in your prayers.
