Savannah-Hope turns 19 months

I had the opportunity to visit Savannah-Hope this month! It was so great to see her. She is doing so well and is so loved and adored by her family. It is amazing to see this child eat, you would never know she only has 4 teeth. She is a little piggy. She likes to have something in her mouth all the time. She is also quite the talker and can now put up to three words together. Savannah-Hope is a happy and healthy baby, our great big miracle.

The Johnson Family cuts down a live tree every year.

Savannah-Hope along with her siblings helped her daddy cut down this years tree.

She even got to put the angel on top

Look at that sweet face!

Here she is tied to her big sister's back.

The day before Thanksgiving I was able to travel with the Johnsons to Kentucky to visit Brother and Mrs. Gentry at their home church. The Johnson's gave a testimony and the church members were able to meet Savannah-Hope in person.

This is a picture of Savannah-Hope's siblings. Tamandani and Sidala are 3 and Jamison is 10. Brother Gentry told us that their villages are not doing well and these children may not make it through the rainy season. They are without sufficient food and supplies. Please keep them in prayer.

Chrissie - I am deeply saddened by the conditions in which the children live in Malawi and even more saddened by our greed and complaining here in the US when we have so much. I put SH's 3 siblings on my prayer list and I am trusting that the Lord has a plan for their precious lives. Thank you for this blog. It feeds my heart.

I hope you are well.

Much love,
Amy Levy

Chrissie,
What a blessing to see Savannah-Hope so happy and healthy. I hope her siblings get the oppurtunity to have good food to eat this rainy season. It was nice to see a picture of Bro. Gentry with SH in his wife's arms. She is a true life miracle. God used you to help her. Thanks for being a good example. ---Karen---
