Letter from the family:
Dear Homes of Hope ministry, we are the Rosendo Andrade family. I'm writing to you to tell a bit of my family's story. My husband and I got together when we were 14 years old and that is also when we had our first child. We were just kids trying to raise a kid! My husband started working and also started drinking heavily. Then we had our next baby. I was a stay at home mom to our two kids. We then had our last baby and that's when things got really bad. I startedhanging out with the wrong crowd and became addicted to strong drugs. I forgot about my kids, forgot about my family while I was using. Things got so bad I started living on the street and finding my food in the garbage. One day, someone approached me on the street and told me about Jesus. Things started to change from that point on. It has not been easy, leaving drugs is never easy. But here I am trying to start all over again with my family, doing things the right way- earning love back from my husband and kids. Thankfully we were able to get a plot of land, right now we are living on the land in a small provisional structure. We just want a dignified place to live as a family. My kids deserve the best, they are amazing kids. I just want to help give a good gift to them. Please, help us if you can. Thank you for reading our story, God bless you!
