"I hope that I would leave a legacy of joy, a legacy of real compassion. I don't think that you can know joy apart from caring deeply about people-caring enough to actually do something." - Rich Mullins

New Office!
Over Christmas break we moved into our new office in the children's home. The last 2 months have been awesome for our administration team. We have almost 4 times the space that we had previously. We have been working to have a professional appearance and this is a big part of that!
We pray that 2013 will bring even more great improvements as we seek to "raise the bar" on how we care for the children God has entrusted to us! Our ideal budget would be almost $20,000 US dollars per month to fulfill the 5 part Child Development Model that we have for the children. That would enable us to meet not only the physical needs but also the emotional, spiritual, educational and social needs of the 68 kids that call our children's home their home. That might sound like alot but it is really less than $300 per month per child. If you have 4 kids in your household, could you take care of them on $1,200 per month?
We want to thank all of you who support us! We plan on having alot of great stories to share with you this year! You are a HUGE part of each of these kids lives!
