AMANDA MORGAN AND PETER DOLCH

Peter: We were on the plane from Tuesday until about midday on Wednesday. Our daughter, Kyra, then about 18 months, was having a blast, just walking up and down. But for us, it was just a few days short of eternity.

Amanda: I remember walking into the Pentecostal church, and when the volunteers saw we had an infant, they immediately said, "What do you need?" Before I knew it—honestly, I don't think we'd been in that church ten minutes—there was a private room set up in the back. They were setting up a crib. And then they whisked us off to Trevor and Susan's house [see p. 16 for related story].

We didn't come with baby clothes, a highchair, a stroller, anything. That same day we had everything. We were lacking nothing. People even brought toys. And they brought all the same things for the other couple who stayed at the Tedfords with us, Isaac and Elizabeth Rosso, who also had a baby girl, Maxime. And all of this was without our even asking.
