A glimpse

You are the God who sees me.  Gen 16:13

A glimpse inside this family’s smokey home. This home is one room and has over 10 people living inside.

What I do can be so difficult to describe sometimes…  I made a pretty detailed blog post about it a year ago…  Click here to read more about child rescues at Hope of Life. What I love most about this program, is the opportunity to connect with the mommas. To let them know their need has been seen, their voice has been heard. It paints such a beautiful picture of how God sees and hears us, even in our most desperate moments.

Today, I want to give you a glimpse of some of the families we have been able to help. It’s a huge honor and blessing to be part of the Hope of Life team.  2018 is already shaping up to be a year filled with lots of healing and help here in rural Guatemala.  Thanks to each of you that help support this. <3

 

This man works hard to try to provide for his family. Here, he is collecting corn kernels for about 40q (or $5/day)
He is 75 years old and has 15 children in this home. The youngest is malnourished because the mother has poor milk supply.

 

I hope this helps to provide some perspective.  The disparity here in these mountains is great, Hope of Life is working around the clock to bring hope to those who need it most.  Praise God.

You are loved,
Whitney
