Even with 'Worldwide' in our name, we know there's nothing more important than a single soul. Read these words from Yelsis, one of our many loved New Hope School students:
“I am 12 years old and in 7th grade. I live in El Cangregero community, in our own house with my mom, sister and stepfather. My mom’s name is Magaly, and she’s a stay-at-home mom. My stepdad is Carlos. He works as a security guard. My sister is 9 and in the 5th grade. We don’t attend any church. I love math and drawing, and I also like helping my mom with the house work. I enjoy my time with my friends at school. The rice and chicken is also good. I love studying here because I learn good and new things here. For example, I knew a little bit about Jesus before but now I know more because of my teachers. I would love to attend a church one day. Pray that I could learn more about God.”
Jesus loves this girl so much He placed her in a new school where she can grow in her knowledge and heart for Him. Almost just as cool, He is inviting you to be a part of that growth in Yelsis' life through prayer.
PS- I am monthly moved and challenged by Aaron White's devotionals found in our prayer guide. As it is every month, this one is worth your time and reflection. Thank you, Aaron!
