Child Care Center 15th of September Celebrates 38th Birthday
Child Care Center 15th of September celebrates 38th Birthday Praise God for the many answers to your prayers and many blessings through your offerings! On October 1st, 140 children and staff members gathered in the gym to praise God. Many hundreds of children from low income families living in this community of delinquency, drugs and gangs have come to know the Lord through this center. We praised Him that many now as adults are serving Him in construction, social security offices, churches, etc.
Each of the 7 groups of children shared a song or poem of thanksgiving. A highlight of the program was the presentation of typical folk dances by a group of senior citizens. Among them were 2 mothers whose children had been in the center! As a special surprise, William Obando, pastor of the neighborhood church, brought a guest from the USA, Bishop Bill Rogers from Miracle Missions Org, who wanted to make a donation to a ministry such as ours. We joyfully received his offering of $200 which will go toward camp for the children in February!
Praise God for Elba Lopez whom God has used for 38 years to lead the center from its very humble beginnings to its present beautiful installations. Celebrate and praise God with us because you are an important part of this ministry.
