Kathy helping at El Espino

This week Kathy went with me to El Espino to help me give out candy to the kids and the bags of food to the mama's, we had fun, and she was a great help, my little future missionary, gotta love it. I gave her the choice to go and play at the kids home, or go with me to give out the food, and she said, mama, i want to go and help give out the food, makes her mama proud :) I really want to teach them early about giving, and helping others, it's what life is really all about.

Missions Team from Mobile, Alabama

We had another missions team come to visit carepoint El Espino, this one was from Mobile, Alabama. They had a big team that was mostly young adults. They did a few dramas, a puppet show, they gave out special gifts to different age groups of children, they also gave out bags of food to about 80 families, they preached and shared the gospel, and then at the end they gave an opportunity to pray for the women and children, and the families that were there that day, they were a true blessing, and everyone seemed to really enjoy them, oh and i forgot to mention they had a clown with them too, his name was Frijolito, which means little bean, he was a hit.

We just want to say a big thank you to you all, it was so great having you here to come and share God's love with the people of El Espino.

First missions team to visit carepoint El Espino

This Thursday we had a team from Mississippi come to visit carepoint El Espino. It was a 17 member team with mostly young adults, and they brought Dr. Larry and nurse Melissa with them. They were a blessing. The team did a VBS, and crafts with all of the children while the Dr. and nurse, with a few volunteers, worked on the medical clinic. The team brought vitamins, different medicines for parasites, general aches and pains, medical creams, lice medicine, and many other items, they were a huge blessing to the community of El Espino, and the surrounding areas. There were at least 73 plus adults, and at least 50, or more children that received medical care, and all of the other fun things that the team brought with them. We also gave out our usual bags of food to the needy families of El Espino. The team did at least 2, or 3 other medical / VBS visits to other communities, and they also put on new roofs at 2 homes here in Zambrano.

Just want to say thank you to the team, and a special thank you to Dr. Larry and nurse Melissa, you all did a wonderful job. God bless you and ALL you do for the Kingdom.

Shoes

Giving away shoes

We have a family that comes to the carepoint every week, and i noticed the little boy, about age 3-4 never has on shoes, so last week i decided to bring him a pair of Joey's shoes. It really brakes my heart to see these children walking around these nasty, dirty, streets barefoot, and their feet are so dirty, and beat up, we really don't know how good we have it, at least we have a choice, most of these don't. It just brings me back to that scripture:

Matthew 25:35-36, 40

I was hungry and you fed me,
I was thirsty and you gave me a drink,
I was homeless and you gave me a room,
I was shivering and you gave me clothes,
I was sick and you stopped to visit,
I was in prison and you came to me,
... the King will say, I'm telling the solemn truth: Whenever you did one of these
things to someone overlooked or ignored, that was me you did it to me.

I know that i have quoted this scripture lately, but the Lord just keeps bringing me back to it.
