The project I am working on right now....

I was planning on going back to Guatemala in August on a mission trip. I have put it off until Sept. or Oct. because I have so much to collect and raise before I go. I am going to Amore Del Nino hogar to take some needed things to them and give them a helping hand for a few days.



I am also going to meet our sponsored Mayan school girl in Panajachel. I will also bring much needed things to their family.

********************************

Here are the things that I am collecting to take on my trip to the orphange.

- clothing for boys and girls size 3-8 yrs old. ( I have had some donations in these items)

- shoes for boys and girls size 3-8 old. ( I have had some of these items donated)

These items need to be in good condition no holes or stains.



Things that are needed the most:

- new underware for boys and girls sizes 3-8 yr. old

- new socks for ages 3-8 yr. old

- diaper wipes

- diaper rash cream

- cough syrup

It will be easier to collect money and buy the following items in Guatemala to keep the shipping cost down.

Money needed for the following:

-formula

-antibiotics ( augmentin and amoxicilin)

- shipping cost for the extra items I will be taking



Please Pray these things can be collected in time and that God will provide every penny needed for this my trip and for all the items and shipping of these items. Also please pray that all the provisions that will be needed for my son Josiah to go with me.



If you would like to come along with me please let me know! I would love for you to come!



If you would like to help by donating any of these items please contact me at karlton5@juno.com.

Wonderful NEWS!!!!!!!

The lawyer has started working on Willy's Gardianship!!!!!
Please Keep Praying for this little boy! Pray that God has already cleared the path so that this
Guardianship can happen quickly! There are so many problems in Guatemala with adoptions and BC's that I am praying their will not be for our lawyer and for Willy!

I will be going to Guatemala in August on a mission trip and plan to visit Willy and the foster family. I will also take another box of clothes down for him along with smaller shoes. The shoes I sent down a few weeks ago were to big. I am also hoping to leave another small (money) gift to help with out with what ever Willy might need.

Thank You All for all you help , support, and love for Willy!
