Mission Work
The first Friday of each month I will be collecting 25 cents from students to help support our new child Alonso at the City of Children orphanage in Ensendad, Mexico. Every month we send $50 to help cover his basic needs. Any extra money collected goes for Christmas and birthday presents and to send him special treats now and then. Throughout the year we talk about Alonso and the differences in our lives. Please pray for him and all the orphaned children in the world.
