We just spent an unbelievable day at Amor Del Nino and I wanted to post pictures for all of you who have such a heart for this amazing ministry...seriously the blessing of God is all over every part of what this ministry stands for and who they serve, not to mention the ones who are serving....BEAUTIFUL! The Lord has just been reminding me again of the simplicity, the beautiful profound simplicity of the gospel of Christ....and I want to always keep it simple in my own heart and life and let loose of anything and everything else....today twice for lunch and dinner as the children of Amor Del Nino gathered to eat their meal, they bowed their head and one of the kids lead out in prayer...she would pray a sentence and a chorus would rise up from the other kids who would repeat that sentence, they continued on that way throughout the prayer and then they all jubilantly shouted (in Spanish) "Christ Lives" "Christ Lives" "Christ Lives" ...."Who lives" one called out ..."Christ lives" they responded ..."What's His name"... "Christ" ( or "Cristo" in Spanish) "What is He" and then together they all shouted "VICTORIOUS" ....it doesn't get any more simple, profound and powerful as that and no sweeter worship than coming from those children who He is has plucked from hand of the enemy! He is VICTORIOUS!!!
....we loved on the children....
...did some construction...
....and even squeezed in an adoption meeting!

Melissa, I stumpled upon your blog because I was reading Sharon's. We are both adopting from FTC. Your zeal and passion for these children of Guatemala has touched my heart and made me aware of all that I take for granted. Thank you for what you do. May God bless you.
