Our Trip is Postponed - But the Need Goes On!

With border closures and current health and safety conditions, are not able to visit Hogar de Amor this April. As a team, we are gutted. We love the kids and staff of Hogar de Amor deeply, and we are so sad to cancel this year's trip.

The need at Hogar de Amor continues whether we are there or not, and the kids are dealing with all of the same stresses, health concerns, and stir-craziness of at-home school that so many of the rest of us feel. We are so disappointed not be able to love and encourage them in-person, and we remain committed to helping to sustain the needs of the orphanage even though we aren't able to visit right now. We want to knock their socks off with a huge donation to help out in this time of difficulty!

Please think and pray about making a donation today to Hogar de Amor.

You can donate online at https://centerpointutah.org/giving (select Mexico Mission Trip as the fund) or make checks out to CenterPoint Church with a memo of "Mexico trip" and mail them to the CenterPoint offices. All gifts are tax-deductible.

Wondering how your gift can be used? Here are some examples of the orphanage’s needs:

• $8 for 12 pairs of boys athletic socks
• $15 for 8 pairs of kids’ underwear
• $250 purchases sealant for one orphanage house roof to keep it water-tight
• $50 buys 5 gallons of paint
• $30 buys fabric for curtains for one room of the new adolescent boys’ home
• $15 for 15 new kitchen towels
• $15 purchases 2 packages of multi-symptom cold and flu medication
• $10 buys a giant box of assorted Band-Aids
• $200 pays for clothing, food, activities, housing, and school expenses for one child

And above all, please pray for Hogar de Amor. Pray for the kids' health and safety and continued emotional growth even in a tough time. Pray for the caregivers and volunteers at Hogar de Amor as they now need to provide schooling on-site in addition to all of their other responsibilities. Pray that each person at Hogar de Amor would feel God's love, every day.
