Our mission is complete! We visited Navajo Ministries Four Corners Home for Children on Tuesday to deliver the baking ingredients and books we purchased. What an amazing and eye opening experience! The Home for Children operates completely on donor money and donations. They presently house 24 children (age birth to 18) with capacity of 28. The facility was built 63 years ago with many houses on campus, a rec room with pool table and hang out area, a working farm where the children do chores to earn spending money, and a classroom complete with computers, a science area and many resources. Sadly, our district pulled funding for the onsite school so the children attend nearby public schools now. The children are blessed by Mrs. Kelly Hargrove, the director, the house parents, the cook and additional support staff who make their lives safer and offer unconditional love. My students and I were lucky to tour the campus, meet some of the children, visit the boy's home and chat with the onsite house parents. Thank you Jesus for my sweet student's caring and generous hearts. Tuesday was a great day.
