Full days

Hola! 
The beauty in this area is indescribable and is just breathtaking!!

Yesterday was church - it is always a special time to see the kids worshiping the Lord.  
It is wonderful to see the growth in kids of every age, not physically but spiritually, year after year. 
Thanks to the guidance, direction, and mentors they have at Eagle's Nest. This makes my heart so happy.  One of the boys leads worship at church and said he continually asks God to direct his steps.  
 He and his sister were brought to Eagle's Nest eight years ago on the very day that I was leaving from a week long trip with church.  We were on the bus about to leave and I was allowed to jump off and go meet them. So grateful to have a relationship with not only them but all the children here.
Our special needs children have improved drastically since last year - just incredible the difference thanks to the therapy they have received. 
The girls and my time together has been special - five teenager girls will keep you on your toes for sure!  I have loved the extra time with them and hopefully they feel the same!
School started today - the older kids were able to register in a school in town that will assist them in preparing for a trade or study when they graduate.  Very thankful to those that contributed and made that happen!!   
The other kids at the Home attend Colegio Neuvo Dia, located on the property.  It is a private school that Eagle's Nest has run for several years.   It is great to be able to walk the younger kids to school right here on the property.  The story behind how the school became a reality is a God thing for sure.
Much more to share, will try and post regular.  Thanks for keeping up with my journey.

Blessings. Denise
