Today’s situation

Casa de Esperanza is a home in Manzanillo, Mexico, for young men under 18 who are suffering from drug and/or alcohol addiction, led by Iain and Sheila Crofton Briggs.

Please pray about their Mexican Charity status.  As there is so much money laundering in Mexico, to attain a charity status to give receipts is very difficult. They need this for Mexican donors and also to be a registered charity in the UK, so money can be received directly from the UK. 

Today’s restoration story - Raul (above)

Iain Crofton Briggs writes:

Raul came to us following a nine month rehab spell, having left the local orphanage Casa Hogar de Angelitos. He was too old to be part of the project as he was over 18.  Instead, we accommodated him to became a trainee employee and then as a worker for two years. He gained a paramedic certificate and now, at 24, is working as a paramedic in the port in Manzanillo. A prestigious job in this area.
