Another Huge Reason to Praise God!


Alrighty, so Keri is laid up in a hospital bed recovering from surgery, so I (Brent) get to author the post announcing the arrival of Justin Charles Osterberg! Yes, the rumors are true - Justin came yesterday at 8 AM, was 7 lbs. 14 oz., 21 inches long, with dark brown hair, grayish blue eyes, and most importantly, he came out just the way God wanted him to. For all of you who prayed, Keri and I extend our deepest appreciation to you and want you to know that God answered a plethora of very specific requests yesterday in bringing Justin out into the world. Here are some pics to check out - let them spur you on to pray for us more as we seek to balance our parental love between two boys now instead of one.


If you look very closely you can see him holding his finger to his mouth as if to say, "I don't want to hear you say I look just like my daddy."


When Peter was born I affectionately nicknamed him Dude-man, defender of truth. In the same tradition, Justin has been named bro-man, defender of justice.


The gang's all here!

The greatest need Justin has is the greatest need we all have - to be forgiven of our sins. So please join with us in praying that God would gloriously save this little boy some day and mercifully give Keri and I the joy of using us to accomplish it.
