May God bless you! My beloved in Christ, we are grateful first to God, and then to you, for contributing your part to this cause for our participants. Some of the playground equipment has already been installed, and we are now hoping to complete what is still missing. . We ask that you continue praying for our project, so that God may continue opening doors and allow us to keep working for the benefit of our beneficiaries and their families, so that they may come closer to Jesus.
