A note from Donna<br />
We are so excited to roll out the school sponsorship<br />
program in order to sustain and grow our DESEO<br />
ministry in <strong>2016</strong>. The goal of this program is not only<br />
to provide financial stability to this effective ministry,<br />
but also to connect individuals from the US to children,<br />
families, and communities to build lasting hope-filled<br />
relationships. It may be hard for some to believe just<br />
how much it would mean to a Honduran child to have a<br />
personal connection with a N. American, but we know<br />
from our many interactions with them over the years<br />
that this impacts the children, as well as the adults in<br />
a positive way. Just the thought that a family in the US<br />
would care enough about their school to participate in<br />
sponsoring the ongoing efforts of DESEO is encouraging.<br />
It goes without saying that there are many benefits<br />
to the sponsoring families, not the least of which is<br />
the knowledge that one’s financial contribution may<br />
change the course of a life, or many lives. We would<br />
love to tell you<br />
more about this<br />
opportunity!<br />
Please pray<br />
as we seek<br />
families that<br />
not only want<br />
to participate<br />
financially but<br />
who also want<br />
to get personally<br />
involved in<br />
changing lives!<br />
