Hope's Senior Project!

My granddaughter, Hope, had an amazing Senior Project! She made baby blankets for Somos Hermanos to take to a NICU at one of the hospitals in Cusco, Peru!

This week she presented her project to the students, teachers and administrators at her school. She also had the opportunity to present her project to the general public.

She did an amazing job! Her hard work and efforts have made a difference in Peru! She may never completely know the blessing she has been to mothers and babies in Peru!

Thank you Hope!

May God bless you for your kind and loving heart!

We love taking baby blankets to the NICU of one of the hospitals in Cusco!

The photo on the left shows Bev and I as we arrive at the hospital. The photo on the right shows us as we leave the hospital.

What happened between these two photos represents an experience that changes lives!

Our lives are changed!
Lives of mothers and babies are changed!

We invite you to join us in these life changing opportunities!

If you would like to be a part of these life changing experiences, please reach out to me. We need more baby blankets for our trip to Cusco in December.

Baby Blankets For Cusco - Part 3

Our visits to the NICU at one of the hospitals in Cusco are always very touching experiences. The babies are so tiny and the mothers are so concerned for their babies.

At times, the mothers are so in need of hugs and support. Bev is so good at providing a needed hug and expressing our love for these mothers. As we visited this time, one mother was having an especially difficult time. As I watched this interaction occur, I could not help but hear the words, "Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me." Well done Bev!

One of the mothers in the NICU had twin girls there!

It is a wonderful experience to provide each of these amazing women with a gift!

Thank you for supporting Somos Hermanos!

Baby Blankets For Cusco - Part 2

It is always such a special experience to visit the NICU at one of the hospitals in Cusco. We used to make this visit at Christmas time each year. We are now going to this hospital twice a year.

Angels from Pocatello, Idaho make baby blankets for me to take to Peru.

We give these baby blankets to the mothers who have babies in the NICU. Many of these mothers leave the hospital with their new babies and little else.

The mothers are so grateful for these blankets.

These babies are so tiny and so precious!

We thank all those who support Somos Hermanos. You are helping us to bless lives in Peru!

Great blessings come to both the giver and to the receiver!

We are making a difference in Peru!

Baby Blankets For Cusco - Part 1

On Sunday we took baby blankets to a hospital in Cusco, Peru! These blankets were made by angels who live in Pocatello, Idaho.

Most of the blankets taken to Cusco on this trip were made by my granddaughter, Hope (Esperanza) and the Young Women of the Capell Park Ward in Chubbuck.

We delivered all of the blankets to the mothers who had babies in the NICU. The mothers were so grateful for these gifts.

Most of the babies were girls. They were so tiny! There were 6 babies in the critical care part of the NICU that we were not able to enter but all of the babies received a blanket.

Each of the blankets that Hope made had a label that said,
Made With Love!
by Esperanza
Somos Hermanos

Indeed, all of the blankets I take to Cusco have been made with love!

I love our Baby Blanket Project!

Thank you Hope and thank you to the Young Women of the Capell Park Ward in Chubbuck!

You have blessed lives more than you know. Some of the mothers in this hospital leave the hospital with nothing for their new babies.

May God bless each of you who support Somos Hermanos.

Together we are making a difference in Peru!

This Will Be So Fun!!

Tomorrow I leave for Cusco, Peru! I will be visiting some schools high in the Andes. I have some special gifts for my friends at the schools.

Each pen has four colors of ink! I'm sure that these children have never had pens like this before.

I wish that you all could be with me!
