A few weeks back they hosted a Carribean tour which included a day stop in Belize. Last month while planning the trip, they had contacted Jeremy to ask him if our family could come and make a presentation to the group while stopped in Belize City- telling them about the needs among the people of Belize and what we had experienced here so far. Discovery had also seen our website which showed a few of the families we have 'adopted'. Many of their clients on the cruise brought with them cash and children's items to donate to these special families. Grady did a great job with the presentation and handed around his laptop which had a powerpoint of photos. We were so blessed by all of the gifts for the children. We were able to spread the gospel of the Kingdom that day. We just pray that what was shared with this group of sweet people was glorifying to the LORD!
When we got to the restaurant where we were to give the presentation, we were trying to figure out just how we were going to talk over the blasting music.. thankfully though the staff at the restaurant offered to turn it down while we spoke. We were very blessed by all of the people we spoke to. They were very encouraging and interested in what we had to share.
The restaurant is located in 'Old Belize' which is located just outside of Belize City. It is a gated area which houses a marina, this fun water park as well as the restaurant and a few stores.
In this photo we are wearing the new dresses that the ladies from Valley Christian Fellowship made for us! Thank you so much Phebe, Page ladies and all who worked on these! What a blessing you have been to our family
Here are the children's items donated. What a blessing! Thank you Discovery Tours for being interested in children who live so very far away from you and who are so needy. It is so easy to push from our minds those who are wanting.. who are suffering. We so appreciate you for remembering them. We were able to witness the little faces who received these and we can tell you that your efforts have made a difference in their little lives. Lord willing, the cash received will be used to help with Lucy's medical bills as well as starting a housing fund for one of the aunts who sleeps on the floor and who needs a home of her own for she and her children~
