Many of you who have come to visit the orphanage have had the wonderful opportunity to serve alongside Carlos (aka Pelon or Baldy). Carlos has been working at the House of Blessing since August of 2012. That is when we first purchased the 40 acres and began building the orphanage. A few years later, a young woman named Reyna came from San Vicente Mexico to serve at the orphanage. Who would ever of thought that these two wonderful individuals would fall in love, get married and continue serving faithfully with us.. They lived on sight here at the orphanage with Jackie and I to help take care of the children. During that time they had 2 beautiful daughters and are expecting a 3rd girl.

Carlos is one of the hardest workers I have ever met. I call him the Mexico MacGyver. This guy can build anything, fix anything, come up with anything when needed.

A few months ago, Carlos shared with our board and staff that he felt like his time at the orphanage was coming to an end and that the Lord was leading he and his family into the next chapter in their lives. They will be moving in a few weeks to San Vicente to serve at another wonderful ministry called “Casa del Pastor.” Casa del Pastor is a home in Baja California, Mexico for women and their children who are abandoned and abused. Reyna actually grew up at Casa del Pastor.

We are definitely sad to see them leave, but thankful for the time that we had with them and are VERY excited to see the new opportunities that the Lord brings their way. Please pray for them as they begin packing and preparing for the 24 hour car trip to their new home. Please also pray for the transition into their new life. Muchas Gracias!
