In addition to the many individuals who help us out financially and with their prayers on a reuglar basis, these are specific groups that are an important part of our family, and have helped us out in the past year, whether financially, by sending a team, or in other ways.
Please note, this page is continually being updated, and only displays our major supporters from the past year. Also, we may have missed someone - so please don't get mad, just let us know :)
Athena Wealth Management
Athena Wealth has been a financial supporter of our foundation for two years now. Their help, and the personal interest they take in our work, has been a huge encouragement for us all. Thanks guys!
Christ Church of Hamilton and Wenham
Christ Church has been our main supporter since we began as a foundation back in 2005. From their "Bolivian Task Force" was born our US 501c(3). They support us in both prayer and financially - thank you so much!
Delta Ministries
Although the anonymous donation from Delta Ministries did come in more than a year ago, we wanted to keep our thanks posted here, as this seed money allowed us to open up Pedacito de Cielo in October, 2008. Thanks again!
Elevation Church
Elevation is the main supporting church of our executive director, Tyson. They sent a team down this past summer, and for the past 3 years have raised funds for Christmas at our girls' home, Corazón del Pastor. Thanks for the constant support!
First Presbyterian Church of Bellevue
First Pres sent us down an awesome team at the end of 2008. Made up of staff member and spouses, these folks helped us paint Pedacito de Cielo, and shared love with all of our kids. This was the first team we have hosted that included entire families. Thanks so much!
Grace Community Church of Gresham
The folks at grace were able to raise some money through their VBS this past summer - money that went a long way towards helping us equip the daycare, Pedacito de Cielo. Thanks Grace, and thanks to all the kids that went to the VBS!
Holy Cross Anglican Church of Loganville
From our very first weeks running Corazón del Pastor, Holy Cross has been an supporter both in encouragement and in funding. They have send several teams down to serve in varying capacities as well. Thank you very much for your commitment to our kids!
Medmãnniskor
Swedish for "neighbors", this Swedish organization was the original foundation of our girls' home, Corazón del Pastor. Since we took over its adminstration, we have continued to be blessed by their support, much which comes from their child sponsors. Thanks!
North Jersey Vineyard
Having visited us now a couple times, we are so thankful for their prayer support, and the financial support they have sent to help us out with Street Light. Thanks so much for believing in our work!
Orkney Helping Hands
The supporting foundation of our Street Light coordinator, Barbara-Ann, OHH has been steadily behind us in our efforts to reach out to the difficult population of street kids. Despite the many changes we have gone throguh in this outreach, they have kept up their support - thanks Barbara and everyone on the island!
Pfeifer Gallery
The Pfeifer Gallery supported us this year by donating the prize money for our first national art competition to support our work with children living with or affected by HIV/AIDS. Thank you very much for helping make this event a success!
St. Peter's Lutheran Church
This church, from New Hamburg Canada, came and helped us get a start on the painting of our daycare, Pedacito de Cielo. It was special to have them for the inauguration of the daycare, and for the first official week of "classes". Thank you all so much for including us on your trip to Bolivia!
Christmas at CDPOn Thursday we celebrated Christmas for the 4th year now with the girls of Corazón del Pastor. Tía Kimber worked with Tías Tania and Noelia to direct a fun and thoughtful nativity theatre. Then, we shared a great big Christmas meal and got ready to open the wonderful presents donated by Elevation church in Canada. We received a surprise visit from the head of the Spanish office of Maxam, with even more toys!
Christmas at PDCWhile it was our 2nd Christmas a PDC, it was our first as a baby home, and it was simply adorable to see the faces light up of our little ones as we celebrated. We shared a festive meal, and the kids all emptied their stockings (with a little help) and open gifts, which were generously purchased by Freeway church in Canada.
Christmas in the CampoToday we return from a 4 day trip to Mizque, where we gave out gifts and Christmas baskets to the children and families of Patawasi and Mina Asientos. These are two impoverished communities, each 7 hours out of Cochabamba. We also provided a warm breakfast, and lots of fun with a parachute, face-painting, and, of course, football. In total, we gave out nearly all of the 280 baskets we put together and the over 1400 toys we brought along with us. Merry Christmas!
