ESMERALDA'S
STORY
In the fall of 2013, Esmeralda, one of the girls from our Children's Development Center in the Volcano, fell ill with cancer. During one of our Director's visits to her home, Esmeralda told her that her dream was to have her very own bed to sleep in.
Soon after, a missions team serving with us for a week answered the call and delivered her a beautiful, new bed to sleep in. Esmeralda fought bravely for several months before passing away in March of 2014, just days after telling our Director that she was ready to be with Jesus.
