Dear Brothers and Sisters,

It is a blessing to share with you the news from our ministry here in Guatemala.
Luis
The children are doing well – they are now on their vacation time until the first week of January.  We are thankful that each one has passed on to the next grade and they have all improved in so many different areas.  And, everyone is excited because we have a few activities planned for the break.  We hope to go on an excursion, a few hikes, and of course, celebrate our Savior’s birth at Christmas time!
We also have two new children.  A twelve year old girl, Paula, and a boy, Abraham, also twelve, have joined us.  Both are very kind and smart. It is wonderful to have them with us in time for Christmas.  They will be surrounded by God’s love and blessings.

Christmas Dinner 2016
Other exciting news is that Luis, one of our teenagers is going to finish ninth grade.  He is very happy because this is an important achievement in his life.  He has already decided to continue studying a trade career in tourism which will require two years of study.  He has also been studying English on the weekends and we can see a lot of improvement.  It is a blessing to be part of his life and to see God’s faithfulness as he grows into a young man. 

As Christmas is approaching, we want to invite you to help us to make the holidays very special for the children and also for the men at the rehab center.  Christmas is a happy time for the children because they receive gifts they have waited for all year long.  They also enjoy the time at the church for our Christmas Eve service and our big Christmas dinner.
We are hoping that the Lord will touch some hearts to help us with the cost for gifts and Christmas dinner for the children.  With the 20 children that God has brought to us, we will need approximately $1500 – $2000.

 
Christmas 2016

We want to thank all of you for the support you have given us throughout this year because it has made a difference in the lives of the children.  We are able to do things for them that we otherwise would not be able to do.  We pray that the Lord will bless your faithfulness!
The rehab center is also doing well.  We have several teachers from different churches that are faithful to come every week and share the Word of God. 
On Christmas Eve, the men at the rehab center will have a big surprise. They do not expect a present.  So it will be fun to see the surprised and happy look they have as they receive a gift that God has provided.  The staff at the rehab center does not receive a salary for their work.  They live by faith.  And that is why we want to give them a special offering gift for Christmas.  Pray to ask the Lord if He would have you help in this area.  We are hoping to be able to have $500 to bless the rehab center with a gift and a Christmas dinner.
Merry Christmas and best wishes to you and your loved ones at this Christmas time and all year long.  God bless you for all the love and support that you provide to our ministry.
God bless you,
