Construction of a New Playground


This picture is of a group from Michigan who came for a work visit last week led by Bill and Jill Thomason (who previously spent some extended time with QSOBS). The group is from the Flint/Flushing Michigan area. There were 7 adults and two teenage boys. They purchased steel in Ecuador and welded a swing set for our school playground. The men worked hard on the swingset and teeter/totter frames while the ladies helped teach English in the school, planted flowers, and sanded window and door frames. Thanks to this wonderful crew for contributing their time and love to the children!

 

Diana Turns 7!


Diana celebrated her 7th birthday on Saturday, January 26. She came to us 4 years ago at the age of 3 following her mother’s death. She is thriving as a student at the School of Hope and is a vital part of the Hacienda of Hope family! Thanks to all of you for providing stability and hope for Diana during a time that would otherwise have been turbulent and bleak. Thanks to God for providing the opportunity to transform her life spiritually and to introduce her to Jesus!
