Seeds of Love

The mission of Semillas de Amor Children's Village is to provide care, high-level education, and solid futures for Guatemala's at-risk children. In addition to consisting of a home for children who are unable to remain with their families, plans for the children's village include a school, a clinic, and a daycare facility for working mothers. The facility is in the early stages of construction. We are currently seeking donors and volunteers interested in helping make this dream a reality.

Moving Forward...

Construction continues to move forward. Our beautiful vinyl flooring will be installed on Monday. The lamps are going in, most of the windows and doors are installed. Last week, while I waited for the propane company to arrive to discuss our needs, I took a long walk beyond the walls of the children's village. I never take for granted the beauty of Guatemala. I took some photos to share with you and hope you will enjoy them. We are very close to moving. The carpenter has measured all of our closets and will begin building and installing them in the next few weeks. This is a very exciting time for all of us.
