JOURNAL Helping the childrenposted on 10/18/2008 As many of you know we used a dear friend in Guat to help us complete our Adoption. Her name is Mayra Garcia, she is a wonderful person and cares so much for the children and thier futures. Here is a site to help the children that her family has started, please read it and help if you can. I can say without a doubt this woman is trust worthy and honest and her passion is truly for the children!!! There is pictures of some of the children you could help. please look at those little faces and try to undrestand what she is fighting for. Below is her letter she sent out to families. As most of you know, we have been working in a feeding program project in Ciudad vieja (5 kmts away from Antigua) and our vision has been to open up an school for these kids, since most of them are not currently attending school.
We strongly believe that education is a key factor for development in any country and that is why we don`t just want to feed their bellies, but also their minds and their hearts since we do not only need for them to be good professionals, but also proffessionals who fear and love God to start breaking up the corruption in our country.
We have spotted the perfect piece of land for this shcool to start in January, but need to come up with an offer next Wednesday October the 22nd. We are trusting God will touch the hearts He needs to touch so that we can come up with a really good offer in order to be able to buy this land.
We have some friends who have opened up a non proffit organization in Lousiana and any donation will be task deductible. Any donation, from $1.00 up will be highly appreciated.
The account no. Is 716622548. The Bank is Whitney National Bank in Louisiana
beneficiary (Wendy A. Smith). address is 1120 North White Street, New Orleans Louisiana, 70119
The official name on the account reads...THE VIEJA SCHOOL PROJECT.
Also, we have a friend (Mary Margaret) who is working on a web page for the project. Eventhough is not finished, I would like to add the links to this mail, so that you can get an idea of what we are doing and that you can keep up with any updates done to it.
