I was so blessed by Y volunteering to come out and clean my house last Sunday. On her only day off she got up early and came and cleaned my house! What a servant heart. I also split the cost with her of going to our church's big conference the week before Easter with the promise that she would pay attention and tell me what she learned. She came back and replayed every word. She learned so much and seemed to really absorb it. She is so hungry to learn more about the Lord and that makes me so excited.
C has been really busy going to beauty school classes in the afternoon and 7th grade classes at night. She has learned pedicure, manicure, hair cutting, and is working on dying hair and working with other chemicals. In her colegio class she has been doing schoolwork, but also had a special teacher come who taught them how to make jewelry. She is so excited about it and has been able to sell some of what she has made. It is so good for her to have some of her own money to spend that she earned.
Our other C has been very busy since moving out of the home. She and her cousin, B moved into a small apartment at first but within two months found an inexpensive 3 bedroom house and another roommate and were able to move to a much better location. She is busy at school doing a project on lettuce and learning how to make her own pump.
B is staying at home and taking care of the kids. We got good news about B's daughter this month when Renee's dad came down. He is an orthopedist and was able to tell us that G's leg problems and normal and will self-correct and there is no need for braces or surgery. We are all very thankful for that!
K desperately needs a job. Can you pray with us for that? She is in a difficult living situation and it would be great for her to move into a room on her own. They don't always have food... and she just needs a job. But with a very low education, that's hard to find. She is persevering with school and doing really well! She is excited about her progress. I also helped her get some more sewing materials this week so that she can offer some basic hemming and altering services and earn a little money that way. C is going to teach her to make necklaces this week too and maybe some of those will sell! 
Please continue to pray with me for Spiritual growth for each girl and child that is in or has come through PDE. I see some of them growing leaps and bounds and really seeking to know more of the Lord. Others not so much. But I just desperately want them to know the grace of God and know that He is enough for them. Please pray for me as I continue friendships with them that God will give me the words to show them more of Jesus!
And then, because I couldn't help it. I'll leave you with some twin pictures from our picnic today!
