House of Hope

Well this is a new opportunity that we have been able to help at lately. This is called House of Hope, and it is a handicap home, where we go to love on them, and serve them in anyway possible. The guy that started it (long story short), had an accident that made him paralyzed. This helped to show him his need for Jesus. He became a Christian, but desired to open a home for others that were born with physical problems that need extra love and attention. Praise God we can support them!

Normally when we go, we spend some time cleaning up the grounds, mostly picking up rocks. This little soccer field has a lot of little rocks all over, and they normally play on the field with socks, so we are cleaning it up. Also its good so that the grass can grow nice and green! I feel like we are playing out the "Parable of the Sower"

My sun hat to hide from the sunburn! Cute huh?!

Yes...they have an ostrich! I guess they eat the eggs every once in a while...

This is the prayer they say for their lunch time...they let us hang out and eat with them. I feel so blessed to serve God in this way, showing compassion and love to His children.

After lunch we go to this sanctuary/recreation room for some game times...we played Soccer volleyball this day....we play with some of the residents of House of Hope....it is always fun!
Continue to pray for our blessed opportunity to serve Jesus here!
