The children of Casa Hogar La Familia are having a great summer, which included three mission team visits and a six-week visit from Joe Lupo who served as a volunteer.
Pictured below is a classroom at the children's school. The children of La Familia volunteered to clean the classrooms to get them ready for the new school year. Note the size of the desks. Two children sit at each desk.
Below is a photograph showing concrete block being delivered to begin work on the second floor of the present building at La Familia. Thanks go to Lighthouse Fellowship UMC in Fort Worth for a $6,300 donation to fund the beginning of completion of a portion the second floor. When completed, this addition will enable La Familia to care for an additional 15 orphaned and/or abandoned children.

Watch your email for another letter from Muriel, a 20-year-old volunteer from Upstate New York.
Please also note that we have set dates for a six-day mission trip to La Familia beginning October 7, 2010. We would love to have you be a member of this mission team.
