October 2008
October has been a challenging month for us here in Honduras. Dorian is still recovering but it has been a slow process. God is continuing to heal and Dorian is getting back on his feet. We continue to struggle somewhat financially after Dorian's surgery. So far we have received $250 from our supporters but the surgery cost us approximately $3500 so please continue to take us before our Father that the finances will be okay. Thanks to those who have sent money and thanks for the prayers also. All of Honduras has has a rough month with torrential rains from tropical depressions. Lots have lost home and everything they owned. The cold has followed the rain and the winds are strong. Through this all, I am most thankful that God has provided for us here as Casa and Santa Ana. Rosita who came to us with no hearing and unable to talk had some more testing this month. It has been very difficult for the doctors to adequately test Rosita. But we finally have the results and she can not hear at all in one ear and only something as loud as a rock concert in the other ear. So we must find suitable school for her and we must learn sign language. Anyone who is wanting to contribute to the children for Christmas will need to send those contributions to : Casa de Esperanza PO Box 9222, Columbus, MS 39705 (Be sure to note on the check that it is for Christmas)
We are in process of raising funds for Thanksgiving meal here at Casa. I have always paid for the dinner for all the children and all the Casa staff but with the current state of finances, I will be unable to do so this year. I know there is at least one small group in Belpre Ohio who will be sending some money to help with this. Anyone wanting to help please feel free to email me for more information. The children have learned to play chickenfoot dominoes and are doing well in school when they have it. Pray for Honduras as it is election time here and everything is always in turmoil then, even more than normal. Continue to pray that Dorian and myself will continue to be His hands and feet in Honduras.
Blessings
Dorian & Karen Guido
