We had the privilege of dedicating Juana’s family’s new kitchen, and I wish every one of you could have witnessed the joy! The entire family was absolutely giddy with excitement. We purchased new kitchenware, and even the children were thrilled over new plates and silverware as though they were opening Christmas presents! ❤️
But it was the words of Pedro and Juana that brought us to tears.
With tears streaming down their faces, they thanked God for sending us as an answer to their prayers.
Pedro shared something that we won’t soon forget. He said many people have come through promising to help, but never followed through. So when we told them we were going to help them, they didn’t allow themselves to get their hopes up.
But then we showed up with tools.
And suddenly, what seemed too good to be true was actually happening!
Pedro shared how difficult it has been to provide for their family of nine. But now, with their new small business and a safe kitchen, he has something he hasn’t had in a long time… HOPE. Hope that life really can get better for his family.
And isn’t that what this is all about? Not just building kitchens or starting businesses, but restoring dignity, offering hope, and reminding families that God sees them and hears their prayers.
To EVERYONE who gave financially, prayed, worked long exhausting days, or helped make this possible… THANK YOU! You were part of something so much bigger than a construction project.
We may have built a kitchen, but God used it to build hope. ❤️
To God be the glory!
