Eduardo


This is Eduardo.

Eduardo lives at Casa Hogar, a children's home in Mexico. Francisco and I sponsor him. I have known him since he has arrived there 3 years ago and every year he has something to send back to Francisco. He loves Francisco even though he only knows Francisco by pictures and phone calls.

His father left him and his brother at Casa Hogar and told Teresa (The pastor's wife) he didn't want them anymore and that she could do whatever she wanted, sell them, give them away, etc. They were standing there listening as all this was being said. Eduardo says one day they are coming back for him. But, that is just a false hope that he clings to. They are not coming back.
We pray to make an impact in his life. Once a month we will be able to call him and talk to him on the phone.

He is very excited that we will be his "sponsors".
**There are only 7 kids out of the 25 that live there who have sponsors. So when a kid is sponsored they are super excited. They feel blessed. Please pray for Eduardo and the other children there as the workers try to raise them to walk with the Lord.
We feel privileged that Guillermo met his "big brother" and we pray they will be able to see each other often as Guillermo grows.
