Christmas: Hurting people, without food, beds and blankets

As the first storm came in and seeing the sky become dark, I could not help but wonder?

How many houses will be brought down by the rains? how many roofs would collapse? how many bedrooms would become rivers and how many houses would be destroyed by mud slides?

How many children will find themselves in a pond of mud?

As I walked though the old dump site, knowing that many would be without food and without a roof, I saw what I had expected!

Hurting people, without food, beds and blankets wet from the rains with muddy floors! Not much of a Christmas for them!

As I went from house to house taking them food, the children were happy to get something to eat, even though their desire was a shining little car or doll. But because of the lack of gifts, food was it!

We also fed one hundred men at the shelter, what a joy!

So, long after Christmas morning when the paper is swept away and the tree is stripped and recycled, we hope you will still remember us.

Thanks again for keeping us close to your hearts and your prayers throughout the year. Thanks for allowing us to bring relief to those who are hurting just a stone throw away!

La Roca team desires you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years!

In His Passion, Carlos and Rossy
