Papa's Got Some New Kids

Papa adopted some new kids ..... well maybe I am using the wrong word, not adopted but sponsored. 
This is little 8 year old Geralda Alcindor.   She goes to Bethel School in Haiti. 

Papa sends money to sponsor Geralda through Love A Child.  The money along with others gifts help to provide a Christian education for these children.  It also helps with medical care.  It helps with school uniforms
Geralda has 3 brothers and 2 sisters and is in first grade.  Isn't she cute.   She says when she grows up she wants to be a seamstress.

And here is little Alex Dor who is 13 years old.  Alex is in 3rd grade at the Fond Parisien school.   He has three sisters.      These children lived through the terrible earthquakes in Haiti. 

Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere and is always in trouble because there are not enough jobs and not enough food.  Many Hatian children have no parents and live in a hungry world.   Half of all children born in Haiti do not live past the age of five years old.   

With Papa's help and our prayer, Geralda and Alex will have a better life.....food for their tummies and a good education.
