Tico Tuesday, July 17th

It's Tuesday again!
I've enjoyed getting to know this lovely lady since coming to Roblealto. Mami Marielos has been a house mom at the Bible Home for around 4 years and she loves to share amazing testimonies of what God has done in the lives of the children who have been under her care. Yesterday, we were receiving several new children at the Bible Home and I heard her say what she was going to do to receive the new boy in her house. She was going to wait for him at the door with 2 balloons. When he came she would open the door -and her arms- wide and say "Welcome!" and give him a hug. So adorable! And just what kids need when they are having to leave their families and come and live in a new place. I got to go make house calls last week to check on some of our kids and their families and see how things were going while they were on vacation. Boy was that eye-opening and heart-breaking. One family we visited didn't even have food for lunch and their house is literally falling apart. Please keep praying for the kids we serve and their families, especially the ones who are arriving this week! Thank you!
God's blessings on you and your family!
Love,
Carrie
