Back from Kenya

We had a wonderful time with the family in Nairobi and Mombasa. Once we took Hannah Grace to the beach, her first time to be by the Ocean :). Now we are back in Uganda though we didn't get Hannah's passports yet..Unfortunately 4 weeks were not enough  to process them. Passports are still in process of getting ready. I hope and pray it will be ready any time soon. You can still pray for us as we are working on the documents for our baby.
Sending warm blessings from Uganda

Kenya

Thanking God for his faithfulness and protection.We reached Kenya well. The journey was very long, it took us over 18hours by the time we arrived to Nairobi Hannah Grace did so well. Most of the time sleeping on her baby chair. Henry's family welcomed us very nicely. They are very happy that we visited them. Also very happy for baby Hannah. Everyone want to carry her. It is nice, it gives me some time to relax. The important thing, we managed to apply for Hannah's passports.It was hectic to move with her from office to office but finally we submitted our applications.Now we have 3 weeks of waiting for the passports to be ready. I pray there will be no delay and as they said by 1st of August we shall have passports for our Hannah. It will be helpful because we apply for East African Passport too,which  allow us to move with her within East African countries without visas problems. Please join us in prayer in this area, so we leave Kenya on time and go back to Uganda.

Thank you in advance , we bless you all in Jesus name.

Faithfulness of God

We are so thankful to God for protecting us all, we are doing well, none of us is sick. Baby Hannah Grace is doing fine, feeding on my breast milk. I can't complain I am running out of milk because there are days where milk is just pouring out of my breast. If I would have another baby I would be able to feed her/his with that. Hannah Grace looks so grown these days – it is hard to believe she is just 6 weeks old.

Every day is such a blessing to us, God has been providing for us and for our daughter. We did receive many clothes for her and that's a big relief .We didn't need to buy a single baby's wear. So far we are spending quite enough buying nappies. However still God takes care of that, we are able to provide for our daughter fresh diapers.

We are also so grateful for the time we spent in Kampala with our friends from Father's House. We had much fun together, feeling like we are part of them. Now our time here is over and time to move on, get back to our mission field in Keynjojo. We are looking forward what God has for us for this coming season. It has been some time since we were there together. Now it looks like we will be going 5 instead of 2(3 of us plus 2 voluntaries coming from Poland). Praise God for help he is sending to us.

Unfortunately we still don't have documents for Hannah and because of that we have to travel to Kenya where we can apply for her passport. Please pray for God's provision, tickets and God's favor upon us. We want to apply for her East African Passport which enable her to move within those counties without any visas issue. 

Taking these opportunity we wanna thank you for your prayers and all support. We pray that God will keep you well and the same we pray blessing over you and your families.

Lot's of love

Hannah Grace is with us

The time pass through and our little daughter,Hannah Grace is with us.She was born on 18th of May (week earlier according to the due day).

We are so happy to have her with us on this side.The whole process took time. I was admitted in the hospital on Thursday when the water broke. With God's and Doctor's help I was able to deliver naturally. Praise God for that. God did a miracle.The last two ultrasounds showed that the cord had been around the baby's neck. The Doctor was a bit concern about that, but what is impossible with God?- Mark 10;27. Also earlier in Mark 5;36 he says ”Do not be afraid only believe. Very true, believe Mirka and all be well. When the baby was born, we found out there was no cord around the neck anymore and our little princess was fine. God can really turn the situation the way he want ,we have to trust him and that's all. Now our daughter is already 1week old and it is such pleasure watching her smiling when asleep, taking care of her. She is such joy to us. We thank you for your prayers and and also support we received from you. We appreciate all and pray that God will reward you everything you did for us.

Stay blessed friend

Mirka & Henry & Hannah

With 4 more weeks left

I am remaining with few more weeks till our baby will be born.I am so excited about it, but still hard to believe that soon I am going to be a mother. Last week went for scan, doctor says baby is doing well.The problem is that the cord is on baby's neck but I believe what can't be seen by human being it can bee seen by our Creator .God is able to change this "For God everything is possible" Mark 10;27

Right now I am in Kampala in Father's House, thanks God  for this place.It is not too far from here to the hospital.Not like from Keynjojo.Also people here are taking good care of me.Little Mark (3)keep asking when baby Hania is coming out.He can't wait to give her a  hug an
d play together with her.I don't know if he really understand that she will be to small to play.Anyway it is so  sweet from him.
Henry is right now in Kenya, trying to work on his passport etc. Let's keep him in your prayers .Hoping he will be done in few days and be back in Uganda soon.
Also taking this opportunity I want to give thanks to all of you who stand with us in prayer and any kind of support. God really takes good care of us through you. May God continue to pour his blessing on you and your families.

wishing you Happy Easter

Third trimester

From now on still two more months to go till baby comes into this World. Each day I don't know what to expect. The nights are very hard to sleep, hard to find comfortable position, the hotness is killing me, having problem with breathing myself. The Doctor is far away, over 250 km away from where we stay. Thanks God for people in Fathers House who offered place to stay during this time. On Monday going to Kampala for Doctor's appointment then remaining there till delivery.

So far received so many clothes for the baby, though the baby is still in my tummy but God really cares, showing us His abundant love.

Last Saturday were very scared.None of us knew what was happening. I never felt such pain, first thought I was going into the labor. God knew it wasn't time yet for that. Thanks God to listen to our call -"He hears us whenever we call to Him..." 1 John 5.15

I ask you my dear friends please don't stop  praying for us, for God's protection over the baby and us as a family, also remember to pray for provision. The bill in the Hospital is high every time I go for check up. The cost of delivering the baby goes from 600$ to 1000$ depends of the condition of the baby in mummy's tummy. More complication then the bill is bigger. But  I believe "whenever two of us on earth agree about anything we pray for,it will be done by our Father in heaven"Matthew 18;19 Thank you all for your prayers, love and support.We love you all, hoping you are doing well. 

Looking forward to introduce to you our little one soon:)
