The Name Game - Part 2

Five times we have had the privilege of naming a child.

Naming a seven year old is a daunting challenge.


We have had his picture on the refrigerator since January.

Many a mealtime, we pondered what his English name could/should be.

Nothing seemed quite right.

Peter won't do.

It isn't Jonathan.

Seth didn't happen.

Luke could've worked.
Bob asked God to give us a name.

Something strong and biblical.

INTRODUCING:

JOSHUA FANKANG PETERSON
Joshua means "God Rescues"
God has had an indisputable hand
in bringing Joshua to be part of our family.


Praying to be united in September 2011
or sooner!
