Owain Robert Holder Jones

24 November 2006
S. John of the Cross

My dear friends:

Praised be Jesus Christ!

On Friday 24 November 2006 at 2.25 AM in lovely Orlando, Florida, my beloved wife Megan gave birth to a healthy beautiful baby boy, 7 pounds 11 ounces, 20 and one-half inches long.

Our son has been given the name Owain Robert Holder Jones - Owain is the Welsh variant of the English 'Owen' and is pronounced the same, at least in our family! Saint Owen (Owini) of Lichfield was in Anglican history a primary disciple of Saint Chad of Lichfield and Robert is the very Welsh name of my father and grandfather. We praise and thank Almighty God for His mercy and grace is providing a safe and joyful delivery for Megan and Owain. Please be assured of our deepest and most profound gratitude for your prayers and of our prayers for you all.

May the Lord bless and keep you!
