Missions team visit





We had a visit today by a team from Mississippi. They were brought here by Pastor Luis, which is the ministry that we go and do the cooking and feeding for every Sat. They brought mini beach balls for all the kids, they gave them cool bracelets that they made, they did a puppet show, and they did face painting, the kids had a great time. This was the first team for the summer to come and visit. Now that school is out for the summer I'm sure we will be getting lots of visits from teams from the U.S., and also here locally in Honduras. Our kids love when we have visitors, it makes them feel special, and they get lots of attention from more than just us. What a blessing!!

Maria and Kevin



We received a 12 year old pregnant girl about 2 months ago, she is living at the children's home, and her name is Maria. She gave birth to a baby boy, Kevin, about 7 weeks ago. Mom and baby are doing well. The baby weighed about 7 lbs, and is healthy, Praise God! The father of Kevin is Maria's brother in law. She was living with her sister and her husband, and apparently the brother in law was having sex with both girls, Maria say's it was not rape, she is in love with this man, so she was removed from the home of the sister, and also her parents home and placed with us. The home situation is being investigated to see if it is now a safe place for Maria to return to with the baby, so please be in prayer with us for the will of our Father in heaven to be done, and that the time that Maria is with us that she will be healed and restored.

Thank you and God bless you all!

Luna's 2nd birthday



We celebrated Luna's 2nd birthday this week. She had a cinderella pinatta, that she was terrified of, with lot's of candy, and of course cake, her favorite part. All the kids had a great time. We are looking forward to this year as we continue to teach her and help to her learn about Jesus, and to worship Him, she is a little worshiper, she loves to dance.

We also discovered she has a great love for shoes, she is such a girl!!! She says shoe in english and spanish, but the spanish way is supposed to be zapato, but she says papo, too cute.

Blessings to all.

Update on baby David



Baby David is now 4 months old and doing great. We just took him to his heart Dr. and they did a test to see if he still has the murmur, and the test showed that he has a very small hole, the size of a hair, and they will do the test again at 6 months old, and see if it's gone, and he was taken off of his 2 heart medicines, Praise Jesus! So please be in prayer with us that in 2 months when we take him back for that test, it will be completely closed up and he will have a normal, healthy heart.

Thanks to you ALL.

New Toddler



We have a new 3 yr old and her name is Carmen. She has been with us, in the children's home, for 3 weeks. She was living on the street with her mom and dad and was taken away because they are homeless and glue sniffers. Her mom was placed in a government rehab center and Carmen was sent to us by the government. She is a little angel. When she came she had lice, and was filthy dirty and cried alot. She had no home, and would sometimes sleep standing up, but now she is happy, and has a warm bed to sleep in and feels the love of Jesus, and enjoys having lots of brothers and sisters, and aunts and uncles to give her hugs and kisses, we'll keep you posted on her progress.

Update on little David



David is doing great. He, as of last week, weighs 7 pounds, and he is growing and getting bigger, we can actually pinch his cute little cheeks, where as before they were just skin and bones. We take him to the Dr. Monday, and i am hoping and praying he will be 8 pounds, if not more by then, Praise God! Thanks for your prayers and we ask that you please continue to pray for him, the Dr. will do a test to see if his heart murmur is gone, and i am believing it is.

Take care and God bless.
