Fernando and Deanne Barbosa lost their 26-week-old baby on Saturday, January 20, after battling a high-risk pregnancy. They chose to trust in the Lord’s Sovereignty and persevered, but it was His will to take Baby Mariana to be with Him. Fernando is an MDiv graduate pursuing ministry in the DMV area, and they are parents to their 2-year-old son, Matthew.

To help carry the burden of the arrangements, we are setting up this GoFundMe page. In addition to the emotional toll, the family is facing financial challenges in covering the expenses related to their loss.

Thank you for any and all support you feel led to give! We humbly ask that you also pray for the family during this very difficult time.
