ABINA’S Annual Chili-Challenge for
COSTA RICA ORPHANS!
2015….
ABINA means, “A Blessing In A…..”
We purposely left the end open to allow a place for you to bless abandoned and at-risk children in Central and North America.
Thank you for your of generous contributions to the children through ABINA Orphan Project Ministries….
Your giving has played a vital role in preparing permanent family-style group homes for un-adopted children.
The first home ABINA helped Residence of Life re-model was located in Atenas, Costa Rica. After the lease was up on this home, Residence of Life purchased a home in Grecia, Costa Rica. This home is for children under the age of thirteen. This year in Grecia, 2018, a second home was established for ten teen-age girls.
We trust God’s Plan for their future is one to prosper them; to give them hope, love, and something no one can take from them, “the love of Jesus Christ.”
Thank you for helping provide relief for children who were removed from harmful environments and at risk of becoming victims of unthinkable criminal acts!
It is a blessing to know that the children now sleep comfortably in their beds, in a safe home and do not have to worry where their next meal will come from. They no longer have to wonder who will love and care for them. Their new mom and excellent caregivers see to it that the children’s everyday care needs are met, that they attend school and church regularly and have good friends in the community.
To God Be The Glory!
Believing that All Things Come From God and for His Purpose, we want to thank our donors and friends for your part in His Plan.
The need is great, and there are many more children in waiting for a home to call their own, and Lord Willing, our goal to help Cherie build 10 group homes will become a reality. What’s needed most are prayers for financial support to purchase of land in which to build the homes on.
