Extra Freezer Space Anyone In The Charleston Area?

The need is beginning to arise for more space to store Jude's future nutrition.  He cannot have breast milk yet, but it will be a huge asset to his healing in the future.  If you live in the Charleston area and have extra space in your freezer please contact Rose and Brian at just.enough.for.the.journey@gmail.com

Ways to Help out the Morrison's while they stay in Charleston

Many of you have asked how you can help out the Morrison family as they continue to live away from home in the Charleston area.  As you can imagine the day to day expenses of going back and forth to the hospital seem minimal at first but add up over time  Brian will also begin having to travel to and from home twice a week very soon and in a short while he will be missing time at work without pay, not to mention the cost of care for Jude.  If God has place on your heart a desire to help the Morrison family, then second to their desire of prayer for Jude would be financial need.  Gift cards to help cover meals, gas and medical bills would be a great blessing.  Any such gifts should be sent to:
1469 Barbara Street
Mount Pleasant, SC
29464

Or to:
926 F N.E. Main Street
PMB #206
Simpsonville, SC 29681

Prayer - The Greatest Need of All

Online Shower - Coming Soon!

Just a quick reminder for those of you that would like to participate in the online shower that the shower will take place on Saturday, November 19th.

Details can be found on the September 6th post.

God's Amazing Provision

We just wanted to take a little time and tell you of God's amazing provisions.  The Morrisons now have a place to stay in Charleston provided for by Cross Bridge Family Ministry.  They also have foster homes for both of their dogs.  In addition they have been continually showered with food and love by so many of you.  Also they have been provided a GPS, a small laptop and now someone is working to gift them with Internet service so that they can communicate while they are separated.  The cards and letters are an ongoing example of how God is caring for them through the hands of those who love them.

Additionally there is a group of lovely ladies that have agreed to help to transport Annabelle to and from Charleston so that she can see her mommy and daddy from time to time.  We have given them the name of Annabelle's Angels and truly see them as such.

It has also been incredible to see how God is providing spiritually as He holds them close during this difficult time.  So many friends will be close by MUSC - some of them even professionally affiliated.  The greatest blessing has been that of the comfort through the amazing love letters that Christ has sent to encourage them through his word day by day.

Thank you for being Christ to Rose, Brian and Annabelle!

Freezer Space Needed

Rose and Brian had a very informative trip to Charleston this week.  The decision is made.  Jude will be delivered in Charleston.  They have also discovered over the past few months that there will most likely have a great need for freezer storage space for mother's milk - both in Charleston and then again when they return home to Simpsonville.  If any of you have room in your freezers that and would be willing to help with this need please contact Rose or Brian at

Also please continue to pray for a home for Saucy.  
The ideal home would be a single person who has a yard and is looking for a loyal friend and watch dog.

Why an online shower?

Because of the nature of Jude’s CDH and the many questions about his future, Rose is uncertain of how emotional she might be at a baby shower.  Many of you have expressed a desire to show your love and care and this is the best way that we could think of for you to do so.

And Why is the shower so late in the pregnancy?

We have come to realize that most gift receipts are only valid for 3 months. 

Sadly, we have to allow for returns in the event that Jude’s time with us is short.
