Dear Brothers and Sisters
God is always faithful with all of us and He is always doing something in the hearts of the children and also in the men and women that are at the rehab center. It is always a blessing to see how He changes their hearts and gives them hope.

We have two new children. They are brothers, ages 5 and 7 years old. We don’t know much about them, but they are going to have their first court hearing at the end of November. We do know that God has plans for them and we pray that God is going to heal their hearts. We also have Paula back with us. Paula is a girl that was here last year, but in January, the court decided to send her back with her family. However, last month she ran away from her house because she said that her relatives are not taking care of her and she asked the judge to be able to come back to our home. He granted her permission and she is back and very happy. We, too, are very happy to have her back with us!
We have been working on maintaining some areas of the children’s home. Two weeks ago we replaced the roof of the laundry area. We are so thankful for the help that was provided to do the work. We are now in the process of replacing two other roofs at the boys’ home and the rehab center. We want to thank all of our supporters for your faithfulness and special help that makes all of these things possible. We hope that these ministries will be serving the purpose of the Lord Jesus Christ for years to come.

The group, Give Joy 2 One, came to spend time with the children. The children really enjoy this opportunity to go out to Antigua with them for lunch and shopping in the market for clothing and shoes. They all had a great time sharing with the group.
This past May, Sam, a member of Christ Chapel in Alabama also came to visit. He helped us to make a new video for the ministry. It is such a blessing to see how the Lord Jesus touches the hearts of different people to help this ministry in so many different areas!

The rehab center is doing well. We have 36 men and one woman. It is always harder for women to accept that they have a problem and need rehabilitation. It is our hope that both men and women are going to allow Jesus to enter into their hearts and change their disposition as it says in
Romans 12:2: And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.
We appreciate the love and support that all of you give to our ministry. Please keep everybody in your prayers. Love in Christ, Victor, Chici and Sandra
