So things here are going very well. This week I visited my little girl Perla.She is 8 years old and has been studying for about a month. She is really cute and is progressing well. Her mom is a rare gem. Jenny her mom is sending her to deaf school and tries very hard to practice learning sign so she can communicate with Perla. Most of the parents of deaf children here don't make an effort to communicate with there children. Some even treating them as animals.For example a sister approached a home that she was told a deaf man lived at. She approcahed the house and the family was eating. She asked if there was a man here that was deaf and they pointed to a dirty little shack in the back of the house. She walked to the shed and opened the door. Out peered a man maybe in his 30s. He was tied up to a pole of some sort, had soiled clothing on and hadn't been feed in days. Can you believe that!!!!! The family tied him up like an animal and left him. The scripture at 2 Tim 3:1-5 is proven true on a daily basis here. People truly have "No natural affection" for each other. All we can do is pray that Jh help us to find those that are truly thirsting for the truth, do our part and leave the rest up to him.
