Welcoming Ruth!



Above is Adela Ruth Alvarez, 15 years of age. Ruth was taken to the girls' restoration home yesterday after spending nearly a week at the Reception house.

Ruth was born in Bolivia, but came to us from the streets of Argentina. Long story short, Ruth's mom sent her off w/ her uncle to Argentina to 'work' illegally, & Ruth within a short time wound up on the streets, into drugs & in with the wrong crowd.

Ruth is definitely a sweetheart, has recommitted her life to the Lord while at the reception house and has stated that she dreams of being a teacher one day. She also loves to sing and enjoys dancing. Help us pray for Ruth that she will make friends quickly at the girls' home, continue to seek the Lord and know Him more, and also make the most of school and different vocational activities for the girls there.

  1. Let Ruth know that she's got a sister in Christ praying for her from Atlanta! Peace and love, Rebecca
