China is Out of Hospital

Dear Daylight Praying Partners:
Greetings from Daylight, Pokot, Kenya. 
Mine is to tell you that little "China" in Pokot, Kenya who has been in hospital, on a critical condition, for the most part of last week, is out of hospital (Cherangany Hospital and Nursing Home, Kitale). Little China now has a clean bill of health. Thank you for all of the prayers!!! Your prayers have made all of the difference - as a family, we thank God for you all. And let's together rejoice for God has healed our son - little China ( Joshua)!

Subsequently, we wish to share with you some of the correspondences and prayers that flew around during, what otherwise was an intense moment, and they went as follow:

First, a distress call reached Nathan Roberts who in turn sent out this message: -  

...on IV drips at Kapenguria hospital
“….his [Michael] son Joshua was in a mild coma this morning and he went to the hospital immediately. He has since been on an IV drip and has begun looking around and making some movements. Joshua will be moving to a larger hospital once he is stabilized. Keep the family in your prayers …”…Nathan Roberts, Daylight Center and SchoolUS Director

And then lots of you went into prayer and intercession mood - 

"Dear Michael – I am so sorry to hear about how sick little Joshua is.  I have sent a prayer request to our congregation and we will hold Joshua and your family in our prayers.  We are anxious to hear that the doctors have discovered the cause of Joshua’s illness and that he is getting better. Blessings to all of you!" Pam DeLaittre, Daylight Partner, Edina Morningside Community Church (UCC)

“…Please let Michael know that I am praying for his son and his entire family.   Our God is a mighty God and nothing is impossible for Him.  Love and Prayers.” - Margie Smith.

“ Dear Michael, We will continue to pray for your son's speedy recovery and your family as well... In His Hands,” -  Larry Vukov


"… Thank you so much! I will pray for the baby and I hope he gets better soon!
thank you for the answers and your time God bless you very much!" - caleb wild.

"Hi Michael.....Great News about Joshua......our God is so faithful.....Praise His Holy Name!Happy Thanksgiving to you and your Family". - Margie Smith

"Michael, I am so happy that China is recovering!  But I am very concerned about him contracting malaria - this is very serious and avoidable.  Does your family sleep under mosquito nets?  Michael, if not we really need to do something about this!  All of the Daylight children should sleep under mosquito nets and so should your family.We can talk more about this when I come in December - I am very worried about your family and the Daylight children! Can't wait to come there myself!" - Faith Kroeker

"Thank you, Michael – Joshua, you and your family continue to be in our prayers.  We are anxious to hear that Joshua is, once again, well, laughing and playing with his friends...Many Blessings," - Pam DeLaittre
Edina Morningside Community Church (UCC)

"Hi Michael, How is Joshua doing? I was so concerned about him being in the hospital. I am so glad you were back from Alale in order to rush him to the hospital and receive the care he needed. Angelina looked so worried and tired in the pictures you shared. I hope everyone is all right now.Thanks, Michael. Greet your family for me!...." - Rachel Finsaas

And then,-
“ Dear Nathan and Michael McCraine - I will certainly try to join the pray-ers for little "China" in Kapenguria.Bless him and you all”. Arthur Rouner, The Rev. Dr. Arthur A. Rouner, Jr. Founder and President. The Pilgrim Center for Reconciliation

In addition, I wish to share with you photos of the little guy ( taken from his photo album) as follows:
hmmm, the eyes....china?
Yes!

Michael and Family
