El Sauzal word of mouth, part I
”Me and some of the kids from the Orphanage.” - Janel, Washington state
I went searching the web to see what others were saying about El Sauzal, the ‘word of mouth’. I found lots of interesting stories and photos, from personal webjournals and websites from individuals, churches, businesses and rotary clubs and organizations. I thought I’d use a couple of posts to share some of the comments, starting with stories from individuals.
Personal Stories and Photos
The Averill family website tells how the family visited the Orphanage in July. It also has daughter Janel’s Mexico 2004 report and photos:
“What an incredible journey! This was my third year visiting the El Sauzal Orphanage, and this time I got to go as a “leader in training.” It was neat for me to see the children there again and renew friendships.”
Gina, 37-year-old from Texas says:
“5 things I would do with 100 million dollars: I would make a grant to El Sauzal Orphanage in Mexico for their needs.”
James Pearson of Ever Moment photography has a great black and white photo of Orphanage kid Sergio, along with a post called ‘Play, no matter what’:
“I’m just glad that he [Sergio] was having that sort of fun that all kids should have.”
Google Earth member measureyougive has created a link to see the Orphanage with Google Earth. (You need to have Google Earth loaded to see the Orphanage.)
The Tsang family traveled from Toronto, Canada to the Orphanage in 2005. They have tons of photos and captions to see, including nursery pics, work projects, kitchen photos, and taking the Orphange kids to the local pool.
Stay tuned. Next, I’ll be giving links to what churches are saying about the Orphanage.
