LAST FEW WEEKS OF SCHOOL

Friends and supporters,

We are fast approaching the end of our school year. In public school in Latin America the school year starts in February and ends in mid to late November. So we are working hard and praying for strength and energy to finish out our school year with success all around.

In this newsletter are some photos from our centers with some of our kids showing off their work, working hard and some of our teachers helping them out.

Please keep our kids, our staff and volunteers in your prayers, specially as we head to the last couple of months of school.

Please join us in praying for the following needs:

  • Our kids, their safety. For their families. For God to bless them in great ways.
  • For our staff and volunteers. They work so hard everyday to help our kids fulfill their God-given potential.
  • For our kids to pass their current school year.
  • For the continued rioting in Managua, Nicaragua. Because of how bad things have been, CDI has been closed for the last month. They will open up again in November. Pray for the safety of our GCLA church there and all of the people they are serving through CDI and the local Total Health clinic.
  • Please pray for Andrea, one of our CDI kids in La Lima. She is currently battling cancer.

Thank you all for your prayers, faithful generosity and even visits with mission teams. We could not do any of this without you.

Happy 4th of July to all of our supporters in the United States. Summer is here! We have been busy with teams at most of our CDI locations. We love hosting teams. It is a great opportunity to share our vision for CDI with new people and it gives us the opportunity to accomplish projects that we don't have the necessary staff for. In this newsletter are some photos of just some of the projects we have been doing this summer: building beds, teaching english and computer skills, painting our facilities, expanding our facilities, etc. All of this is possible because of your support. THANK YOU! PRAYER LIST:
  • The rioting in Managua, Nicaragua. For the past couple of months there has been intense rioting, due to some decisions the Nicaraguan government has been consistently making the last few years. Please pray for our kids at CDI there, their families and our local GCLA church in Managua.
  • Francisco, he attends our Soyapango CDI. He had an accident at home with some very hot soup and had severe burns in his body. Please pray for a speedy recovery with no complications.
  • For our kids' energy and attitude in school. We are in the middle of our school year in latin america. Please pray that they stay encouraged and willing to keep going!
  • Our teachers (staff and volunteers), they work very hard every day to provide the best help and support for all of our students. Pray that God guards them, enlightens them and uses them in our kids' lives and their families' lives.
 
 

EASTER

Happy Easter everyone!

We are truly happy to be able to celebrate our Savior. We are able to do the work that we do because of your support for our kids and our program. The only reason we do this work is because God's love has changed us. God's love shown through Christ's sacrifice has changed us.

That is why we teach the kids about God's love for each of them. This is our biggest priority.

"In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death—even death on a cross!" Philippians 2:5-8

Our desire as CDIs is to live out this passage in our local communities and to be able to serve you, our sponsors, as best we can as well.

In this newsletter are some fotos from Danli, Los Cruces, La Lima, La Ceiba, El Guayabo & La Libertad. These are just some of boys and girls whose lives are being impacted by the knowledge of a Savior who loves them and gave His life for them.

Thank you for trusting us with your resources. The impact in our local communities would not be possible without your support!
