Today was a wonderful day!! We were so blessed with a dream. Jerry dreamed of making a thousand dresses to give to all the little children she sees in all the countries God sends her. Jerry brought about 80 dresses to give to the little girls in the poor areas across the border in Mexico. We visited members of the churches in Bacalar, Blanca Flor and another little village. Jerry also was able to bring shorts for the boys.
As we went from village to village, I couldn't help but say little prayers for each of the children and their families. I know from looking around at the faces in the van that we were blessed at what we gave but I am sure we all were wishing we could do more.
In Blanca Flor, we saw that their church building was half finished. The money has been spent and more is needed to raise the roof.
This is the home of one of the members that the church worships in currently. Next is a picture inside her home.
A wonderful family that we met is the family of Josefina. Josefina is the wife of Jorge Quintana. Jorge is the Director and founder of the school in Corozal. Jorge also preaches in the villages that we visited and distributed the dresses and shorts. It is because of Jorge that we were able to cross the border and visit with the children and church members. Jorge is a modern day Paul. May God bless Jorge and Josefina and their family. I have truly been blessed by the Quintana family.

We gave about 30 dresses to Josefina's family to pass on the families of the Guatemalan migrant workers who live in barracks behind their house.
