Many of you have heard about and given graciously to our new water filtration system. Thanks to you, many families in the village of La Reina are now provided with pure water - water that will strengthen the health of the entire family! Here are some photos of the process.

Dulce's Recovery!

Yesterday, Dulce returned to the orphanage after spending the night in the hospital.  Her surgery went well on Thursday, and now she is recovering with her blue hip spica cast.  Please continue to keep Dulce in your prayers as the cast is quite uncomfortable and she is not able to move around as she normally does.  Also, continue to pray for the Open Doors Orphanage staff as they care for Dulce and the other six children during this recovery period.  Hopefully it will be a speedy process for all!

Roaring Like a Lion!

The past few days, I have thoroughly enjoyed hanging out with and getting to know Katie, one of Paraidse Bound's 2012 interns.  We have decided that this song, God's Not Dead (Like A Lion) by the Newsboys, is going to be our theme song for this summer.  Enjoy the lyrics below!

God's Not Dead (Like A Lion)

Let love explode and bring the dead to life

A love so bold to see a revolution somehow

Let love explode and bring the dead to life

A love so bold to see a revolution somehow

Now I'm lost in your freedom

In this world I'll overcome

My God's not dead, He's surely alive

He's living on the inside, roaring like a lion

My God's not dead, He's surely alive

He's living on the inside, roaring like a lion

Roaring, He's roaring, roaring like a lion

Roaring, He's roaring

Let hope arise and make the darkness hide

My faith is dead, I need resurrection somehow

Now I'm lost in your freedom

In this world I'll overcome

My God's not dead, He's surely alive

He's living on the inside, roaring like a lion

My God's not dead, He's surely alive

He's living on the inside, roaring like a lion

Roaring, He's roaring, roaring like a lion

Roaring, He's roaring

Let heaven roar and fire fall

Come shake the ground with the sounds of revival

Let heaven roar and fire fall

Come shake the ground with the sounds of revival

My God's not dead, He's surely alive

He's living on the inside, roaring like a lion

My God's not dead, He's surely alive

He's living on the inside, roaring like a lion

My God's not dead, He's surely alive

He's living on the inside, roaring like a lion

My God's not dead, He's surely alive

He's living on the inside, roaring like a lion

He's roaring, He's roaring, He's roaring like a lion

He's roaring, He's roaring, He's roaring like a lion
