Emily

Since our introduction of Emily much has changed for her.  Emily has graduated high school and has been accepted into college!  What an incredible accomplishment for this young lady who had been living on the streets and barely surviving.  

For us in the US it is fairly commonplace to graduate high school, to go on to college....

I recently spoke with a wonderful young lady who is in the decision phase of where to apply to college.  No question she will go, just doesn't know where.  We are so blessed to have these opportunities that to others around the world are considered luxuries.

Fortunately the Wesley Home for Youth doesn't end at high school graduation.  We plan to keep Emily in our WHY family until she is finished with her education.  She plans to become a teacher and return to the community she is from to offer her skills and resources in hopes of breaking the cycle of poverty for other children.

Emily is need of a committed sponsor in order to help with her education and physical needs.  Please pray about supporting her.  Join us today!

Thankful, Sheryl
