Of all the amazing people we met during the trip, one girl found a place in our hearts that we didn't know we had. Her name is Hilma, she is 17 and has had a really tough life so far. She is probably the best football (soccer) player in the area and was forced to quit high school to help her mom. Michael and I have set up a scholarship fund for her through Sports Servants for her to return to high school. She is overwhelmed and so grateful for this opportunity and we just ask for your specific prayers for her tomorrow as she takes her placement exam. She will be attending Cornerstone Presbyterian High School in Cristo Rey and we are so excited for her!!!
Michael and I are just so thankful for our time in Belize. We appreciate all of the prayers and support through the amazing journey. We can't wait to share more and plan on being a part of Sports Servants and Belize for a very long time.
Glad you guys are home safely -- can't wait to see these pictures!
