Steven is a three year old child that is well known in Pastor Hill's church. He has been "adopted" by all. Steven is currently the only child of a children's foundation that two members of their church are running. Steven is 3 years old. He has been part of the foundation, I believe, right over a month. He was living with his grandmother as his parents were not able to care for him. However, his grandmother was not able either, and has asked this Children's Foundation to care for him (caring for his physical, emotional, spiritual, & educational needs) without giving up rights to him.
Steven came into care very malnourished and underweight. He still is. He is a very tiny guy, but he's so adorable... I could just hug him and love on him forever. A true Colombian Cu-tee-pa-too-tie! Since he's been with the Church and the Foundation, he's gained about 3lbs, and is getting treated for a parasite.
Please pray for this little guy! Please pray that despite what circumstances were that he will not be bound to that, but will overcome and will grow into a strong, healthy, vibrant, God-fearing, young man.

Oh this makes my heart break and wish I could come and get him. Hopefully, he will be able to make it back to his family as it sounds like that must be the goal. Bless the church people for taking care of this beautiful child. Geographically, where are you guys again? Looking forward to more posts. It's a wonderful opportunity to be re-connected to the place that has given us all so much!
