PRAYERS FOR BRIAN & SARA CRANE

We shared in worship yesterday the sad news that Sara Crane was pregnant but that the child had a rare genetic disorder.  On Friday, in the 18th week of pregnancy, Faith MaryJo Crane was stillborn at Sanford Hospital.  There will be a private family service this week.  But we encourage the church family to pray for Brian, Sara, Bailey, and Isaiah during this season of loss.

Here is a little bit of the story from the memorial folder:

Faith MaryJo Crane, daughter of Brian Russell and Sara Lee (Oldenkamp) Crane, of Orange City, was stillborn on Friday, March 27, 2015, at 7:27 p.m. at Sanford Health in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.  She was 18 weeks and had been diagnosed earlier in the pregnancy with Trisomy 18, a rare chromosomal condition. This little miracle was born sleeping and already safe and healed in the arms of Jesus. Family and friends take great comfort in the promise of reunion and spending eternity together in Heaven.
