We received a new boy yesterday. Each dorm has a specific area where they can play or visit. So for 15 days we will monitor the children and pray for God's protection. They will eat at different times. A third child has Covid. Stand with us please. Amy…

We have two Covid cases so we will be locking everything down for at least 2 weeks and pray that no more children get ill. Our physician on staff here had surgery today and we are awaiting the results. I worked on the sponsor list with Mynor. If…

Due to the weather Amy was unable to fly home to Oklahoma. Hopefully she can get a flight for Friday. We received a young boy at midnight with no shoes or warm clothing and the weather is frigid. Tatiana is doing her practice to become a hemodialysis technician…

It was 33 years ago today that I stood on a hill in Mexico and looked down at the river border to enter Guatemala. I was scared senseless--had no faith as we drove into Guatemala to begin this journey that we are still traveling. God has blessed us…

The students had their first major tests of the year. The weather is still cold. Our doctor on campus will be off for a month for surgery. We are not certain on the dates. "Train up a child in the way he should go" but be sure you…

Andres and Estella moved in and now re the house parents for Vencedors. She was raised at Casa. I really think that the coldest day ever was today. Of course there is no heat in the dining hall/church so the kids wanted me to preach fast.

The first month of 2022 is at an end. Today it is raining so Dottie is pleased to have water from heaven on her plants and flowers. Prices for everything has risen. A 5 quetzal, 75 cents bus ride is now 20 quetzals. So this hits the pocket…

God is so good. I spent a great portion of the day listening to sound Bible teaching. Dottie joined me for some of it. I also read a book on love by Henry Drummond published in 1884. Born in 1851and died in 1897 he was only 46 years…

Josue', Billy and Alex are working on getting the college students enrolled. Some of the universities require the students to attend in person while others are still on-line classes. Amy is still here for a few more days. She has been such a blessing helping with the little…

Another of our older boys left because he just cannot handle studying collage courses on line. The isolation is mentally exhausting. This pandemic has affected our children, staff and prevented visitors from coming so it is terrible.

I really wish I had an idea as to when we can get away from the Covid regulations. All of us miss having visitors. Visitors were such a wonderful blessing and helped us to give the kids joy and a knowledge of Christ. Hopefully we can start bringing…

We received a donation of bedding 9 sheets, etc) which greatly appreciated. Our three psychologists are orienting our older children about university life as some started this week. Most will be on-line but a few have to go in person. I was shocked when Jim told me that…

I had the children pray in church for various things. One of those things was for more Americans to come. Hopefully teams can start coming soon but I was speaking about staff. Although our population is very low I believe it will rise. We will need help. Right…

There is not any way I can say it well enough for you to understand but our older girls have been such a blessing. They monitor the classes from Kindergarten through seniors and then they help in the baby dorm. Their college classes are remote at night or…

Our physician and nurses are performing check-ups on all the children on campus. By having our own clinic we can monitor the children better. Many of the older children have had the COVID vaccinations. I have actually made radio programs until Christmas 2022.

One of our social workers has Covid for the second time so that puts us on alert as she was around many adults and children the last week. Again I ask your prayers. Minor is so very intelligent. I made 50 radio shows an accidentaly deleted half of…

Dottie and her boys worked in her garden while I made Radio shows. I have every daily program through September just in case the COVID continues. Josue met with a judge giving us more children. I failed to tell you that the reason we have been able get…

Dottie had pain in her arm from the booster shot and I had a headache so we listened to tapes and then I made radio programs and worked on my Sunday sermon. Lazy day!

Jesus had a special place in His heart for children. Today two more children were sent to their homes. As I laid hands on them and prayed I felt a piece of me shrinking. Billy Sunday said, "I don't believe there are devils enough in hell to pull…

Today was a cold Sunday so everyone just laid back. The staff that eats lunch with us on Sundays stayed longer so we just visited. Helping one person might not change the whole world, but it could change the world for one person.
