August Already?!

















   I cannot believe it is already August! June and July flew by and the kids only have a couple more weeks before school starts back again. I am so thankful for the work that the Lord did in and through each team that came to share the love of Christ at Casa Hogar this summer. Each week was unique and special for the kids and it is evident that the Lord worked through each person that came to visit. So many of the kids are already looking forward to seeing you all again. As we head into a new school year, the kids are spending time enjoying the little bit of break they have left by playing with each other around Casa Hogar as well as going to visit friends and family.
   As you can see in the picture above, the Lord's beauty is evident here at Casa Hogar, but if you have been blessed to have visited here you know that the Lord's beauty shines through each and every kid here much more than any sunset could. Thank you to each one of you that took a week out of your summer to love these kids and show them Christ's beauty. I am blown away daily by how the Lord uses this place to help people see His glory.
   As the school year rapidly approaches, I ask you to join me in prayer for a few things. First, pray that the kids would be able to rest and enjoy their last few weeks of summer break. Pray that we would have lots of fellowship that brings us closer not only to each other, but also to Christ. Pray that the Lord would continue to work in the hearts of all us here at Casa Hogar. Pray that the new building would be completed soon and the move into a new home for the boys would be a smooth transition.
  Thank you to every one of you that has been faithful in prayer for this place. We cannot do this without your prayers! Praise the Lord for the work He has done and is continuing to do this summer.

"The heavens proclaim his righteousness,
    and all the peoples see his glory.

For you, O Lord, are most high over all the earth;
    you are exalted far above all gods.

Light is sown for the righteous,
    and joy for the upright in heart.

Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous,
    and give thanks to his holy name!"

Psalm 97:6,9,11-12
