And our second girl

I'm back in Colombia. It's been wonderful to be back, actually better than normal now that we have our own house and kitchen :) So exciting!

Yesterday another girl walked into our lives. One of our students that just graduated last Saturday was downtown yesterday, and noticed a girl crying. For some reason he was concerned about her, one face in the busiest part of the city. He talked to her, and he was the first person to find out the news, she was pregnant. He brought her straight to the base and she spent about an hour talking with Ana Cristina and me. We prayed for her, and then she left to go tell her boyfriend. We are waiting to hear back from her how he and her parents took the news. She told us that she just couldn't go home yet, and was thinking of finding a church when Alberto approached her. I'm so glad we could be that little bit of support and encouragement in her moment of change and guilt and fear. Please keep praying for the ministry to continue form according to God's plan.

Graduation pictures are coming soon!

Yeah, God! There is need and just getting ready to minister to it opens the way. I told someone here that I think you could quickly have more than you ever would have guessed. You probably didn't consider Alberto being on your team. Who knows, maybe God will raise up who you need. Way to go!
