I am so excited to be able to introduce to you V. She is 16, pregnant, and the newest of our girls at PDE :) Due to her history and situation, I can't show you a picture of her, but she is beautiful and sweet.
For me this has been one of the most heart-wrenching stories of girls that I have met and I'm just so thankful that the Lord brought her to us. She comes from loving family, from all outward appearances. She is really close with her mom and sister and they cried their eyes out saying goodbye. They have one brother that was working driving buses to support all 6 of them (two younger siblings). But he recently gave up his job because of the instability of the neighborhoods he had to drive through... so they have no income. V was unable with this pregnancy to stay in her current neighborhood, it just wasn't safe. So God used some of our teammates to connect her to me and now she is one of ours!
For the duration of her pregnancy she is out of town at a different home where she can receive health care and we can go visit and get to know her better. But as soon as the baby is born in June or July she'll be back :)
Please pray for this new girl and her unborn little one. She has told me that she is not a Christian, but is willing to listen and learn about Jesus. Pray that she will come to know HIM as Lord and Savior and also a sweet refuge for her soul.
