| These children will always have a special spot in my heart!! Many of them have had such difficult trials already in their young lives...Many of them only have one parent living, or none at all. Many have "hopeless" home situations, yet with God we all have a hope and a future...My prayer is that each one of these children can give their hearts to God and live for Him!! |
