We have a new baby - Esther!


On November 13, 2007 an NMC work team was given a special honor. A baby girl had been left outside the gates of the baby center. Ed Moser, Bob Leinbach and Verle Hochstetler from NMC were working there. The Kenyan caregivers asked them if they wanted to name her. They decided to name her Esther. They asked the caregivers what a good Kenyan name would be. They said "Shetoo" because it means she was born (found) "while visitors were here". The men were like proud papas over that sweet little girl. God has a purpose for each little life. Who knows, maybe baby Esther, like her Bible namesake, was saved to help her people "for such a time as this".
