“Jace Garrett Steinhaus was born on March 20th, 2008 with a genetic disorder most commonly known as Trisomy 18. Our little miracle lived among us and blessed our lives for almost three months, and then he went home to be with the Lord on June 14th, 2008. Jace’s short life was a struggle, but during his time here, God used him to show us the beauty of life, the importance of living each day to the fullest, and ultimately, the unfathomable glory of heaven. Because of Jace’s life, those close to him will never be the same. We want you all to help us celebrate the life and testimony of our little Jace Garrett by joining us for a fun 2.5K and 5K event.

Through our journey with little Jace, we’ve seen that every single life is precious and that every child has been made by God for a purpose. Although we were certainly pro-life before the birth of Jace, our son made us realize even more clearly the spiritual and emotional destruction that comes with taking the lives of unborn babies through abortion. Proceeds from the Jacer’s Racers event will go to a Christian organization called Living Alternatives. Living Alternatives provides homes for women with unplanned pregnancies; it teaches women how to care for their babies, helps them finish school and start careers, and ultimately shows them the healing love of Christ as an alternative to going down the abortion path. Some friends of ours, Brad and Heather Crain, are involved with a Living Alternatives home in Tyler, Texas, and we personally give to their ministry efforts with this organization.

We look forward to seeing you at Jacer’s Racers on Saturday, September 6, 2008. Thank you for sharing in the life of our little Jace, and for helping us to continue in the support for life for all unborn children.“

-Lauren and Dan Steinhaus, Jace’s Parents
