Our baby has been diagnosed with HLHS (hypoplastic left heart syndrome). We believe that God is in control and will use our situation to glorify his name. As we take this journey, we invite you to join us on our knees and pray for a mended heart.

ReplyDeletesigning off now! But still praying for u all!
from Northern BC, Barb
I am so pleased to hear that it will be streamed I wanted to be there and now I can Thank YOU LORD. AS always I will be holding you all in my prayers
ReplyDeleteI keep checking my reading list in hopes of seeing news of Hope. And, of course, there isn't any. My head knows this but my heart hopes against hope. I cannot explain how your family and your Hope has infiltrated my heart. Although it's possible but unlikely that we will ever meet your Hope will always be a part of my heart. Sounds crazy but it's true. There are many reasons for this, including simply her name. I will be watching tomorrow afternoon. Thank you so much for sharing your precious Hope with us.

You took the thoughts right out of my head and verbalized them, Em. Praying for you and will be sending many love and prayers as I join you tomorrow (thank you to those who are making this streamed service possible).
DeletePraying for you and your family. Words can't express how deeply my heart cares and aches for you. I pray that Jesus will give you a peace that passes understanding.
ReplyDeleteI still can't grasp that she's no longer here with us on earth, and am trying to hold onto Amy's words in that she is no longer in pain. She's whole and though she was always perfect, is now taking her turn in watching over family to ease their pain.
ReplyDeleteOur family sending all our love to yours and little baby Hope, you'll not be forgotten, how could you be.
Amy and Shawn,
ReplyDeleteWe have followed you through your journey with sweet Hope and prayed for you daily, we want to express to you how sorry we are that she was not able to journey further. We cannot imagine your grief but know that His promise to come close to the broken-hearted is His promise that never fails. May you and your entire family sense His presence through this day of celebration. I too am so happy that Hope now has her new heart!. We love you Amy and will continue to pray for you each day. With our great love sent to you. Debbie and Richard.
Wouldn't miss it. God bless your family. <3

The website listed above has Hope's service time listed as 1pm EDT (not MDT), and therefore the counter on the page says it's starting in 4 hours. I'm assuming Amy's post is correct and it's starting in 6 hrs (1pm MDT / 3pm EDT), but I will check the site at 1pm EDT just in case. Just a heads up for others who might be confused like me. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for letting us know about the time on the site . As many (I am sure) will check throughout the morning so that we don't miss being there with Amy, Shawn , Sadie & all their wonderful family & friends.
ReplyDeletePrayed for you all throughout the night last night. I pray you will know God's peace and love today and in the difficult days ahead.
ReplyDeleteThere will always be "Hope"
ReplyDeleteGod bless you all My heart breaks for you.

I just finished watching Hope's funeral. It was such a sweet service and an example of your faith. I continue to pray for peace and comfort for you and your family.
ReplyDeleteR.I.P. Sweet Baby Hope.
ReplyDeleteMy heart broke when I heard you left Mommy and Daddy to be with our creator. I pray he holds you close until Mommy and Daddy come to hold you again. My prayers are forever with you.
Dear Amy and Shawn,
ReplyDeleteThe service for Hope today was very special. In planning it you were true to your statement at the beginning of your blog in declaring that God is in control and desires to use your situation to glorify His Name. We know that is not where you wanted to be, at your baby's memorial service, however you've made a choice to say "Blessed Be Your Name". Thank you to all who took part and to all who made it possible for those of us not close enough to attend. How precious to know their is another Hope Koslowski in heaven. We will continue to pray for you in the days and weeks to come. Today was probably not the hardest, I'm sorry to tell you, but God is faithful.
