The team at Gov. Juan F. Luis Hospital announced this weekend the first baby of 2022, born Jan. 1 at 12:55 a.m. Weighing in at 6 pounds, 11 ounces, Immanuel Acosta is “thriving, active, and observant,” according to the JFL staff.
“His proud mother Shainna Acosta named him Immanuel because she wanted a Biblical name that would remind us all of God’s goodness even in times of great difficulty. In Hebrew, Immanuel means ‘God is with us,'” said a post from the hospital team.
