Astrid's Update

A few months ago we had the pleasure of hosting the Rhodes Family.  Prior to their arrival, they raised $6000 to build two homes.   Recently Jack was able to make a post-visit trip to see how the families were doing and to assess any additional needs with their new homes.  Rainy season is here so it's important to make sure the home is withstanding the harsh rainstorms. 

Astrid and her family received a home just a few days after giving birth to their second daughter so it was especially important for Jack to not only check up on the house, but also on their baby girl!  I know Mandy Rhodes and I know she would expect an update on the little sweet pea!

It was a great visit and Jack said the family is doing wonderfully.  The house has held up well with the recent rains.  The family is enjoying their new home and making it their own by adding an additional wall, hooks to hang personal items and of course, using the stove frequently!  Astrid's husband is a hard worker and takes care of his family's needs, while Astrid is busy taking care of her two little ones!  In a few months, the family will begin classes which will include lessons on physical health, financial stability and spiritual growth. 

If you are interested in sponsoring a home for a family, please check out what $3000 covers here.  Then send us an email at townsendguat@gmail.com!  We can help you raise funds to give a family a home and show God's love to a family.
