The Countdown Continues!

I have been counting down for how many more clients we need (on top of our current client load) in order for Andrea and I to sit for our NARM exam. We are aiming for taking the exam in February of 2011 which means we have to have all of our paperwork turned in by October 2010. Right now I need only 12 more clients to come due before then, and Andrea needs 17 more. Combined we need a total of about 22 more, and then we will be done getting all of our numbers for the exam! I am so excited that it actually seems more possible to me now than it did just a few months ago!

Psalms 139:13-16

For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.

Exodus 1:15-20

The king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, whose names were Shiphrah and Puah, “When you help the Hebrew women in childbirth and observe them on the delivery stool, if it is a boy, kill him; but if it is a girl, let her live.” The midwives, however, feared God and did not do what the king of Egypt had told them to do; they let the boys live. Then the king of Egypt summoned the midwives and asked them, “Why have you done this? Why have you let the boys live?”

The midwives answered Pharaoh, “Hebrew women are not like Egyptian women; they are vigorous and give birth before the midwives arrive.”

So God was kind to the midwives and the people increased and became even more numerous. And because the midwives feared God, he gave them families of their own.

Patron Saint of Midwives, newborns, infants, pregnant women, childbirth:

St. Raymond Nonnatus

St. Raymond Nonnatus (1204 - 1240) hailed from Catalonia, Spain. His name means not born (= non-natus) as he was delivered by caesarian. He was a priest and Master-general of Mercedarian Order. He was said to have spent his entire estate ransoming Christians, and then giving himself up as a hostage to free another. Pope Gregory IX made him a cardinal. His feast day is August 31.
