Some of your who read my DeYoungs in the Dominican blog might remember this sweet little angel who stayed at our house a few times with her brothers and sister. We have been working with her mom, Y, who has left prostitution in recent months, and trying to help their family to get a fresh start (read their story here). Since the children did not have documents when we started working with the family, none of them had yet been to school. Marisol, who works with our outreach ministry and who was a former teacher at ANIJA, was able to help scout out necessary papers and get little Flor on the waiting list at ANIJA, which is a Christian school here in town for low-income children and children from the Ark Orphanage here in Jarabacoa.
We are ecstatic to report that little Flor was approved for this scholarship and will be attending pre-school at ANIJA this fall! We are blessed to be friends with the director of this school, Paul Cooper, and his family, who are amazing people, so we know the school provides an excellent, quality Christian education to children in need. We are so thankful that little Florecita will have this opportunity to go to such a great school! Please continue to pray for her brother Capullo, who is still on the waiting list, and also for Y's husband, who recently left prison and is continuing to look for work.

Thank you for your prayers and support! Keep it coming! :)
Love, peace, prayers, and Dominican sunshine,
Kristin and the Alianza team
