What the kids say about our classes in Guatemala

Since you hear so much from me about the work we do, I wanted to give you a different perspective in this newsletter. Volunteers from our local church have been serving alongside us at the Cadaniño Community Center helping to teach train, train and educate the children. These letters were written after a recent Bible club activity. I pulled some excerpts from them to share with you.

Denis

Thank you for the activities you and your friends bring to us. The thing that has impacted me the most was the Bible classes. I also love the Bible songs we do in the activities, especially the way they encourage us to praise God.

Thank you for your love for the children in Guatemala. The activities your church comes to do has helped me learn many good things, that helping others is very good, thank you for teaching me how to do it.

Madelin

I thank you for this great opportunity that you offer to all the children who are served by your foundation.

The personal religion classes have served me with very practical values I can use in my house, at school and while in the street. I am very grateful because the computer classes help me a lot. I am taking advantage of them every day I can.

I am very grateful to God and to you for your great support and love that you offer to all.

I am also grateful for the church group who come in the morning to teach us for their example of how to love our neighbor.

God bless all of your friends for being kind and may God help them to bring more activities. Thank you for the opportunity to bring books home from your library, it helps to educate us and have better reading comprehension in the field of education.
