Our kids got to experience fanesca—Ecuador’s traditional Holy Week soup made with grains and cod, rich in history and meaning 💛

It’s usually shared around the table with family. For many of our kids, that family right now is their caregivers and R17 mentors—people who love and support them daily. 🌿

Because of you, they get to experience traditions, create memories, and feel deeply loved.

✨ We’re so grateful to Home Church () for giving us the opportunity to share and connect. It’s always encouraging to partner with churches who are passionate about serving the vulnerable and making Jesus known. 💛

If you’re interested in learning more about church partnerships and how you can get involved, we would love to connect!

This week, the boys from Casa Esperanza went grocery shopping with their house father. It may seem like a small thing, but these everyday moments matter. Sharing routines like this builds trust, creates space for conversation, and helps them learn what independent life looks like in a natural, hands-on way.
Thank you for being part of what makes these moments possible.
