Footprints of February

This past month at Providence has been busy, busy, busy. To prepare for Academia La Providencia to begin, the amazing teachers we have worked long hours to decorate their classrooms. A lot of cleaning, cutting, gluing, counting, and decorating was involved to make La Providencia look as wonderful and creative as it does! There is a lot that goes into preparing for Academia La Providencia and there are many people here that have served and volunteered their time to help make Providence as Successful as possible. Academia La Providencia is now going on its fourth week of school, the teachers and students are extremely energized and are excited for class. There have been a lot of donations for the school; the students and teachers have been busy using the supplies for reading, writing, and counting! We even have recorders to practice music, so the children have been loving being able to learn in a different way. Academia La Providencia is still within its first month of school; there will be more stories to come! Also, this month at Providence we had Phil Darke our President/CEO stop by with a team of 13 people. The team came for a week and got to experience La Providencia first hand. They spent their time within our school sitting in and watching the children learn. The team also got to enjoy fellowship with us staff members by celebrating Orlando’s 24^th birthday. February has been the month for birthdays here with our staff members Douglas and Deivyd both had birthdays only a day apart. Loida one of Beatriz and Mario’s daughters had her second birthday as well! It has been fun getting to know the staff members here actually make real relationships but fulfilling God’s command to love and take care of the orphans. We are enjoying the presence of the children back in school here, as well as the teams that have stopped by to help fulfill the goal of Providence’s ministry.

Please keep the teachers, staff members, and the students in prayer as we take on this New Year with a joyful servants heart!
