ROSA

Danielle, Rosa's 2 year old little girl.
Rosa, Lidia's daughter, brought her 5 children to a childrens' party Tuesday in Nuevo Progreso.  They live near the church and we'd like to see them come to Sunday School.  Rosa seemed to enjoy the activities as much as her children did; and attending Sunday School would be a great way for us to minister once again to Lidia's family.

Several days before we heard the news of Lidia's death, I ran across an old picture of her with some of her children taken about 20 years ago.  I immediately told Rosa about this family picture and promised to bring her a copy at the next church event.  It will be a privilege for us to give her an enlarged, framed copy of this long forgotten picture.  It's one she'll always cherish, and maybe it will remind her that she's always welcome at the church.

Rosa's youngest child, 2 year old Danielle, was wearing only pampers when she walked down the road by herself ahead of the others.  This independent little girl was curious about everything, including what was inside the door of the parsonage.  Tiny tables and chairs were just the right size for her and 2 other very little children.  Their feet could barely reach the floor when they colored in their books and when they ate their snacks.  But Danielle mostly enjoyed being able to pick up her little chair and move it around.

Please pray with us for Rosa and her 5 children.  Especially for little Danielle who has her whole future ahead of her.  We want them to become part of the church family at the church in Nuevo Progreso.
