This month at Casa Segura, an explosion has begun. The long awaited day arrived on the 14th of August, when we brought the first orphans to live at Casa Segura. The breakthrough came in the usual fashion here when the grass roofing material arrived. Everyday since then has been packed with loving and caring for the all the needs of these orphaned children. Each night as we fall into bed exhausted from the challenges of the day, we can now look at their sleeping faces and know the love of Christ that compels us to go on.

Along with the children came a new list of jobs that need to be done, from collecting firewood to cooking, from buying shoes to buying bibles. By next week the size of our staff will have doubled, as we prepare for the explosion to continue. Please pray with us for the new members of our team as settle into life at Casa Segura, that they will have strength to endure and victory in every battle coming their way.

Last June when I was in Australia, it was prophesied that the struggles of the past year would be replaced by a moving forward. And God has been speaking the leadership here about the explosion that was on its way since the beginning of this year. In the fullness of time, the day has come to see these words come to pass! Our God is faithful!

There is no greater reward for these years of the day to day hard slog, than to look into the eyes of these children and see hope there. Hope for a future, hope in Jesus Christ and hope for a nation!
