David and Guillanda


About a week ago David was seen "begging" in the streets. The orphanage checked into the situation and the mom brought the kids in saying she wanted to give them up for adoption again so they could have a better life. The mom said that David does occasionally ask people on the streets for money, but it seems apparent that the kids and family actually look well and they're not living on the streets. The O told Rosaline (their mom) to come back the next day with the dad as well so they could all really talk things out, but no one has shown up. It is probably best if the kids stay with their own family, they need consistency. Please sincerely pray for them though. The mom often seems tired and worn out to me. Please pray for her strength and joy. Pray for the dad to engage more with his kids (assuming he's not... he may very well be) and pray for the kids to have continued health and good moral upbringing. Pray most of all that they have the Lord in their lives. Rob and I would love to be in touch with the family more often, so pray that if it's God's will, He will open a door for this. Pray also that if they need the Lord, God would put a mentor in the center of their lives for His purpose. Thank you.
