Hacienda Of Hope

This is a picture of Hugo Sandoval, one of our house parents. He is making a public PowerPoint presentation at San Jose Chico, the small pueblo on the mountain just above the Hacienda de Esperanza. Hugo obtained permission from the President of the community to present information about how to have a better marriage, better family and a better home. He has been working for weeks preparing 210 slides for the four hour presentation. Besides this 4 hour presentation, he was the pulpit preacher and also taught the adult bible hour class ...all in the same day yesterday! The community turned out with a nice crowd yesterday afternoon even though it was cool and rainy. Hugo explained all about the Hacienda de Esperanza and mentioned that plans were being laid to start a new congregation of the church of Christ in the near future. Hugo is a very vivacious speaker who makes Bible stories animated with lively illustrations for the children each day during our devotional period between 5:30 and 6:00 P.M.
