And thank you so much for being with us today,” Pascal Tokodi narrated.

“In April we are believing that we will receive our bundle of joy… that’s why we did not want to have a usually baby shower, we wanted a family, especially people who have walked with us in this journey. When we found out that we were pregnant again I was so scared and I’m till today and every day I wake up and I have a muscle pull I cry like crazy,” Grace Ekirapa said.

She went on to explain that they held a thanksgiving ceremony for their unborn child, trusting God that the pregnancy will mature to the final stage.

“Saying it is our baby's thanksgiving is because indeed we are where we are...our hearts are full. We have prayed, we have cried, we have had our moments...held hands and we have reached here.

"I’m doing this by faith, the same faith that has carried me through this journey…its thanking God before I see the blessing, its saying God I trust you so much, I will buy baby clothes by faith, fix the crib by faith…today I’m here because ‘m trusting God that on the April 27 we will receive our baby.

“This day was beautiful in every way. we chose to have a very intimate gathering because we needed to share that beautiful day with people who have in one way or another held our hands through this journey,” shared Grace Ekirapa.
