Happy Adoption Day Caroline!


 Happy Adoption Day Caroline!

Has it really been 9 years since we welcomed Caroline into our family?  My, how time flies!  December 1, 2003 was a beautiful, summer day in Guatemala City.  David, the boys, and both of our Moms were with us the moment they brought her into the room at Hannah's Hope and placed her in our arms.  We had waited so long, but in that moment we realized it had all been worth it!


 It's hard to imagine life without Caroline.  She is loving, sweet, easy going, and selfless.  Some of my favorite memories are watching her with her friends in Guatemala.  We are so thankful for the opportunities God has given us for her to love and be loved by people in her birth country.  It truly is a gift.




To all of you who prayed for her and us during the adoption process - thank you.  For those who gave sacrificially to help us bring her home - words could never express our gratitude.  And for those who choose to invest in her day after day - we are blessed to have you. 


Happy Adoption Day Caroline! 

                We love you!

Where are they now? Sthefany

I got to know places thanks to them and they also showed me their love through letters (letters that I still have), gifts and financial aid. I would really like to meet and know how my sponsors are and meet them in person and thank them personally.   And well, I think that these kinds of experiences make you grow as a person in all aspects and how wonderful that those kinds of people exist, s...

Mission team member's "idea" + Facebook Fundraiser = Jobs in San Nicolas

  Our last team to Guatemala was in November of 2019.  That seems impossible but it's true.   The primary focus of the team was a pediatric medical clinic that was hugely successful.  However, that wasn't the only seed that was planted that week in the community of San Nicolas.   Wanda King has been going to Guatemala with Caroline's Promise for years.  We can always count on her to bring hand sanitizer, goodie bags that she and her sister make for everyone, and lots of love!  One of the things I love most about Wanda is that she is willing to step in and do anything that is asked of her.  A few weeks before this trip she asked if she could bring a set of hair cutting supplies.  I didn't know if there was a need, but I knew that Wanda felt strongly that she should bring them and so I said "of course!"  Little did we know the impact that one idea would make.   Wanda spent most of that week teaching our partner, Monica how to cut...
