Day 5 • Ciudad de Angeles • Lori Sams
"Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions."
1 John 3:18 NLT
-----
Today, Lori Sams shares how God is working through Ciudad de Ángeles, a children's home in Mexico that has been caring for vulnerable children for many years. As Grace Chapel's representative on the ministry's board, Lori has witnessed firsthand the impact that faithful caregivers and a Christ-centered community can have on a child's life.
At Ciudad de Ángeles, children are surrounded by love, stability, and family. From school and discipleship to shared meals, worship, and everyday moments of childhood, the ministry strives to create an environment where children can flourish physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The dedication of the house parents and staff reflects the love of Christ in tangible ways.
Lori reminds us that God's love is often demonstrated through simple acts of service and generosity. Through our partnership with Ciudad de Ángeles, we have the opportunity to help provide a safe, nurturing environment where children can experience hope, healing, and the love of Jesus.
