About Us

In April 2013, I arrived in Milwaukie, Oregon after spending 3.5 years on the mission field in Northern Baja Mexico. Soon I discovered God's purpose in bringing me to Oregon...the homeless community.

Preparing Christmas Info. For Sponsors

We've been busy beavers preparing information for sponsors. Not only does all the information have to be updated on each child, but Lynette makes sure that the pictures of each kid are perfect. On top of that we've been making labels with information on each child, labels for each letter of course and then sorting all the kids pictures to get them off to churches and schools that would like to sponsor a child for Christmas. Whew...It's easy to forget all the work that goes into a mailing, especially when you want it to be as personal as possible.

After the mailing was prepared, Tyler and I took a trip to the flea market across from the church. We shared a delicious pizza, bought some headsets for $2.50 and a few other odds and ends and then we tried a slurpee type drink called Tejuino de nieve. It has kind of a lime with salt taste and it's very bright green. Had to try one.

The next thing I'm looking into is a way to keep warm at night. Since there's no central heating and we have concrete walls for our house, it's getting very cold at night. I'm told this is just the beginning and to prepare for December.
