If you are considering a commodity donation to Casa Hogar para Ninos Esperanza, here are some items that are currently needed:
1. Milk / Cheese / Eggs
2. Children’s clothes and shoes (any size-any gender)
3. Diapers Size Jumbo

Volunteers from Cancun Christian Fellowship purchased and delivered eggs, cheese, pork, chicken, beef and chorizo to our Christian home this week.

This has been a great day for GOOD NEWS. First, we just received a call from a group in Indiana that will be here for two week beginning the middle of June. Their desire is to attend our church services and help us launch our new renovation project at Casa Hogar Para Ninos Esperanza. Pastor Mancilla has approved the project and, when completed, will add to the quality of life at our Cancun Christian orphanage. AND, we just talked to Kathy Turner in Alabama. Kathy is doing better and is on the road to recovery. Kathy stated that she has booked their flight ‘to Mexico for June 7th and they will be returning to their Cancun family shortly. It will be great to have them back home. Please join us and keep the Turners in your prayers.

Trish and Ricky Gonzalez purchased enough diapers to keep Jamil dry for the next ten days. Remember, diapers and milk are always needed and appreciated. The Gonzalez family has done a wonderful job of supplying diapers and clothes for our children.

We continue to look for a legal size locking filing cabinet for Casa Hogar para Ninos Esperanza. If you have one or know where we can purchase one at a reasonable price, please contact Tom Martin.

Cherilyn and Tom will be entertaining two of OUR children in their home this weekend. A trip to the beach and fish tacos on the square in Puerto Morelos seems to be in the plans.

A friend of TJ’s was moving to the Chiapas area and donated clothing and toys to the home. They were delivered last week and the toys were an immediate hit.

The Keith and Kimberly Wagner family visited our Sunday Service last week. They well be here for approximately two months and we hope they join us again. It is always nice to see fresh young faces in our service.

With Easter and Semana Santa behind us, church attendance should pick up this week. Mark’s lesson is a continuation of the series on “Secrets”. We have previewed the lesson and know that you will enjoy it.
