ABOUT US
We always said, if we get a girl first will will only have all girls, a boy first only boys. Well we did get a girl first, and her name was Ribka, and several girls after her. Then one day John got a call from someone living in Singapore who told us of a boy alone in Indonesia that had just lost his mom and was left alone. At first John said no because we only have girls now, and he was thinking down the road when they were teenagers that it wouldn't be a good idea to mix them. Well a long story short , Jonathan was in a desperate situation and ended up coming to the home. We have always believed that God hand picked every child for the home. Jonathan has been an extreme blessing, and we are the one that benefited with his coming to the home.
