The Phil Files

Okay, so last Thursday I promised I would start blogging about Communidad de Niños Segrada Familia. (Note, the website is dated and there are now 800 children now there!) So far, I have not blogged. There is a good reason. In fact, there are several.

1. We were exhausted. Donna and I spent last week there with a group of 75 others who did a Vacation Bible School and spent time with the children of Sagrada Familia. There was simply no time or energy to appropriately say what is in our hearts.
2. We want to offer you the opportunity to do more than just learn about this incredible opportunity with great needs, but doing such a powerful ministry with the most forgotten of Jesus’ “little ones”! To do that appropriately, we need to get some things in place.
3. We want to provide you with pictures and video to get more an experience of the event. With the help a friend, we will have both and hopefully will be able to launch an English website that shows you how to help and become involved.

Bottom line, Donna and I will never be the same.

There are hundreds of children in our hearts, but several will be carried in our souls and dreams and prayers and waking thoughts, for as long as we live.

So while the blog promise is delayed, be assured, it is coming. We don’t want you to miss it. In fact, we want you to get caught up in something that is smack dab in the middle of the heart of Jesus.

I will let all of our Heartlight.org community know about the blog pieces on Sagrada Familia as we get closer to the time we go live, but just believe me when I say, “You don’t want to miss it!”

Until we go live, please pray for these precious children in Peru and pray for the work being done to make sure they are housed, fed, educated, and loved! These children have always been precious to Jesus … and now that we have held them and taught them them and played with them, they are more than precious to us!
