Tim and Susan Stiebeck have finally heard from Lima that they have been approved for adopting our oldest boy, Yan, and his sister, Roxanna. The process has taken approximately 9 months since the Stiebeck’s decided to adopt. They are willing to help other couples that are ready to adopt with valuable information on the process. The orphanage has about 7 children that can be adopted immediately.

This month we are having a record number of short term volunteers that are coming to Hogar de Esperanza to help. We are using them to teach English to the children, also they help the children do special learning projects and help with painting the facility. We are encouraging other people to come, and if you are interested, please send me and email.

The second floor of the Ranch is completed, and we are now finishing the interior. Right now we have six young boys ages 12-16 in the program, and with the addition of the second floor, we will have a capacity of 24 more. We specifically need young men to volunteer and come to the Ranch and tutor 5 young boys in learning life skills. For the men volunteers, a good working knowledge of Spanish would be important.

We want to thank everyone for the donations that are given every month to help support the ministry. We also want to invite anyone who has a passion to help in this ministry. Please email me at mrdavidmiller@hotmail.com. Thanks so much for your support.
