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 for funding and overseas relationships with the UK, Canada and USA. Casa de Esperanza are very dependent on two donors and need to increase their donor base.

Today’s restoration story - Angel (above)

Iain Crofton Briggs writes:

Angel was 15 years old when he came to us and had been living on the streets as Dad is a crystal meths addict and the relationship with his mother has broken down.

He has now been with us for over a year and has also recently celebrated his 17th birthday.

He has caught up with his education and doing very well in his Preparatoria exam. He is a real success story educationally. He will be our first graduate and we are looking to his future and the support we can offer him.

Mum and Dad divorced recently and Dad blamed Angel for their problems, which was very cruel. However, with the help of our psychologist, we got him through it.

He is such a fine young man. We are very proud of him and all he has faced to achieve the changes he has made.
