 Hello again! I'm here briefly to give you a special Milk Project update. As you can see above, the first pad for the future Milk Project location in Las Botijas. More work will be coming, but the usual major hold up is first getting all the supplies there. For this pad, there were 9 different trips...by two different trucks. It is time consuming, but worth it. We had a group here, the second of 2021, last week, a huge blessing to all of us. For some, more than we knew... Maria shared with me today that Mariza, one of the children in the project, will have to be changed in 2022. Why? There is no one at home to watch her, and so her dad made the tough call to take her to live with her grandmother a few hours from here. That is a bummer, but, understandable. But she was there on Friday for the brief activity the group did with the kids (we had about ten minutes with each child, separately, to talk with them and pray with them...we wanted to do something even though we can't do what we normally do yet.) Maria clarified that Mariza knew the group was coming and what activity we had planned. There was no way she was going to miss that. So her dad went and got her and brought her back, just for those ten minutes. Four or more hours of her travelling for those ten minutes. Good thing we didn't know that at the time, because there would have been waterworks. Bottom line for today...sometimes what you do doesn't seem to matter, or that no one cares or is paying attention. They are...and it does matter.

Awesome story, thanks so much for sharing. Praying that somehow we made it worth it to the family. So humbling. Leave a Reply. |
