The Children are so Thankful!

We asked some of the children what they’re thankful for this year!

“O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.” Psalms 107:1

 

ESCARLETH
Age 13, Honduras

What am I thankful for?
Food. I love to eat! School and the new friends I will make. The clothes that I have.

Who am I thankful for?
My houseparents, because they take care of me and give me what I need.

How has God answered my prayers this year?
For my siblings to be safe and that my little sister is able to be here at Hope with me.

 

ABBY
Age 10, Tampa

What am I thankful for?
I’m thankful to be at Hope because if I wasn’t here I wouldn’t be the way I am now. I’m thankful for my siblings. I’m thankful for my teacher because I wouldn’t be smart without her.

Who am I thankful for?
Miss Hannah (staff member) because she was here from day one until now.

How has God answered my prayers this year?
I prayed for my friends to get saved at junior camp and they did.

What am I thankful for?
Being with my sister, a safe home, and friends

My mother

How has God answered my prayers this year?
Because I was new, I prayed to see someone that I know and my old foster parent came to visit me at Hope.
