Pray for Alondra, Desperately in Need of Heart Surgery

Rosalyn and half of Alondra
Hello people!

Today I was teaching my classes of kids, when a Mum came to our house, crying in desperation. Our principal, Ivania, tried to console her but she was just too upset. I switched roles with Ivania and learnt, through Lorenzy, that her young daughter has been taken to hospital and she is now needing a life-saving heart surgery. 

Hospital treatments are generally free here, but this surgery requires a specialist and the cost is $180. We don't have this money though, God knows all things and through HIM, all things are possible for those who believe... The little darling's name is Alondra. Could I please ask you to pray today, that God would provide the money and that Alondra would live a long and happy life.
This case is especially sensitive for us because the family had enrolled their eldest daughter, Rosalyn, in our school. They have since pulled her out because there are so many rumours that we are child traffickers (there are currently many incidents in the news of others sealing children who don´t belong to them), narcos (one lives across the road from us) and that kids die in our pool (rumours, which I assure you, are not true). 

We believe that the Lord will use this situation to show the community, yet again, that we are here for them and love them dearly, with the love that only God can give.
Thanks to you for your generosity and prayer regarding this matter. 

We are making a video diary of this time so that when everything is resolved, and little Alondra is well again, we will be able to share this story with the World as a celebration of the goodness of God. We don´t feel to post the video now, as it might come across as insensitive and voyeuristic. (even though that is not our heart) 

And so... please pray. Pray, pray, pray, pray, pray... Not my Will, but yours be done...

Many thanks again,

Capital on the Edge
