Steve's Colombia Visit Confirmed!



For those of us who have been a part of the CI google group for a while, we know how exciting it is when Steve makes a trip to one of the community centers. Steve visited my Guatemalan child Yessica over a year ago, and then, he visited with my Mexican child Brayan last year.

Now, he is headed to Colombia! It is a very exciting time for me because the child that I have been sponsoring the longest (Henry) is in Cartagena. He will, also, be visiting Diego who I have sponsored for a year and a half now! Talk about excitement! I purchased a Colombia national soccer jersey for both Diego and Henry. In Diego's package, I included a "Daddy Yankee" CD, since he is his favorite singer/rapper of all time. In Henry's package I included the mini lite brite shown above.
I can't wait to see the videos that Steve comes back with!!! I have never seen these children in motion before :o) Thank you, Steve, for allowing all of us to enjoy the experience with you and get to know our children better!

"Our field staff in Cartagena have informed me that they have made arrangements for you to meet with the following children:

Diego sponsor: Heather
Henry sponsor: Heather
Sonia sponsor: Shana
Yiseth sponsor: Shana
Isaura sponsor: Chenelle

In Barranquilla, Our field staff have asked the following children to come to Yulianis' community center to meet with you:

Jhojaris sponsor: Lisa
Brayan sponsor: Lisa
Daniela sponsor: Chenelle
Yuselfi sponsor: Inga
Keyner sponsor: Eliana"

I am toooo excited Heather! :) Lori said that the cookies and juice were out because it was too late to plan for it, but that's okay. I know that they will have a great time :) Your gifts for the boys look great. I have some tops for Sonia and Yiseth but I hope that they will fit. I also included some little things for their siblings but they are not able to come. I can barely sleep thinking about actually seeing them in motion :) Go Steve!!

Chenelle, little Danielle is so cute. Have you receieved a letter from her yet? I can't remember if I saw it on LiftOne.

I don't know if Sonia and Yiseth know if each other or know that they have the same sponsor. It should be interesting to see :) God bless.
