Carepoint El Espino




Starting in March, Ernie and I started a new ministry, it's called a carepoint, and it is in a somewhat remote village, called El Espino, about 15 minutes from Zambrano. I really felt like we should start reaching out to the hurting, hungry people outside of Zambrano. It had been on my heart for a while, and in March the Lord opened the door for us to start. A carepoint is, to sum it up, a great way to show the love of Jesus in practical ways. The carepoint is a feeding center for children 5 days a week, it provides education for those that are too poor to go to school, it has bible clubs to teach the word of God, it's a way to provide basic medical care for the community, and to also bring in medical teams for bigger medical needs, and any other practical ways to help these poor people that are in need. It provides a way to help the people make their situations better. The carepoint also provides clothing, shoes, and any other basic needs as they are provided. We are now just bringing bags of food, once a week, which consist of beans, rice, and corn, to the poorest of the poor in this area. We give out about 50-60 bags a week. We are looking for a piece of property to buy so we can build a building for the carepoint. It seems like things are coming along, and God has been right here with us, it has been pretty effortless for us to get this started, and total peace, and of course that helps remind me that this is a God thing, and it is something that He desires. I will keep you posted on the progress of this carepoint. I am grateful that the Lord is providing the needs to these precious people. Please pray that we are able to find a piece of land, and that God provides the finances to buy it, and that He provides all the needs of the carepoint.
James 1:27
27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
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.
Thanks, and God bless you all. Thanks for being a part of this with us.

Milk for the kids

We hope and pray that this blog finds you all in good health, happy, and blessed.
We are trying to raise money for milk for the kids here at the Prince of Peace children's home, and for the un-wed teen mothers home. We would like to buy 3 pallets of whole milk, and the cost of one pallet is $900.00. The milk is Borden UHT milk, and our kids love it. We have bought this milk for them in the past and we would like to keep suppling it for them. The milk comes from a company out of Metarie, LA, and we will ship the container out of BTR, LA, leaving the first week of June.
If you would like to contribute towards the purchasing and shipping of the milk for the kids, please send check made out to Light International, P.O. Box 668548, Pompano Beach, FL 33066 and in the memo section put Robyn's nest -milk, and this is a non-profit organization, so therefore it's tax deductible.
Thank you and may God richly bless you all, and we know that not all of you can contribute financially, but we need prayers also so that we can collect all the money we need to purchase the milk, thanks and be blessed.

Kids Swimming
I decided to buy the kids a baby pool, and well lets just say i am having a hard time getting them out. Last year Joey was terrified of the pool, and did not like it at all, he would even freak out when i pulled the swimsuit out, he knew what that meant, and he would start crying, saying no, no, but thank God this year he is over that fear, but now he does not want to come out, he went from one extreme to the other, oh well right??? I am glad it's warmed up here, but now i am just ready for rainy season, the grass and everything around us is brown, and dry, yuck. I am watering the grass like crazy, and it's not working, i must pray harder for rain. LOL.

David's visit to Zambrano



All of you know who David is and all about him, and it may be crazy that i am doing another blog about him, but he holds a very special place in my heart, and i just want to share that with you, i hope you don't mind. David came to visit his mom, Amber, and some of us here, that played a special role in his life, this past weekend with his grandpa. He is absolutely adorable and it made me realize how much i have missed him, but it was great to see how happy he is and healthy, he is a chunky monkey, precious. That visit brought a lot of joy to all of us. It helps me to remember how blessed i am, and how God keeps blessing me. Even though David is not living with us anymore, i still feel like i am a part of his life, and i am grateful that his grandpa still sends me updates and wants me to be a part of his life, it makes me realize that the things we do for God, are never overlooked. God is so good! I hope you enjoy the pictures, his smile is priceless.

Bunnies



We now have rabbits. I was asked about 2 months ago if i could take a couple of rabbits and put them in a cage in my backyard, and now they are not only running around the yard, and pooping everywhere, they are multiplying, how exciting is that? We have 5 adults, and 5 babies, and more on the way. I love how they are fertilizing my yard. LOL. They are great entertainment for the kids, and for me too. Joey loves to chase after them and hit them on their backside to make them hop, they will spend ours outside chasing them, who needs cable T.V., right? I'll update on the rabbits, soon!
