...

This is the e-mail Marcee just sent out regarding the future of the girl's home, Cristo Viene Ninas...


I've been advised that the girls and staff can stay on the property until December 15th. This allows the girls to finish their school year and gives us three more months to create a Plan B. 

At this point, I understand that the NACER homes director, Miguel Zuchetti, wants to stick with the plan and not begin construction until next year. This means that we are looking to the government to grant us another confiscated property for our use until the new home is built. 

As a result of the uncertainty, a few girls have ran away from the home. Please pray for Celia, Juana, and More. Pray for the all the girls as it is extremely unsettling to have all that is familiar to you be threatened and unstable. Pray for all the staff and give thanks for their steady presence. Praise God for this grace period that is certainly the result of all the prayers that have been said.

 
Thanks for praying everyone, and please continue to do so.  As Marcee wrote, these kinds of things are difficult at the best of times, and even more so for these girls who've lived a life of uncertainty and instability.  As well, please pray for wisdom and compassion for those who will choose the property the girls will use until the new home can be built.  Past experience would suggest that it might not be a very nice place.  Obviously God is at work though.  This grace period is definitely from Him. 

I'll continue to let you know more details as I hear them.  Thanks again for praying!
