"We got our first letter!"

(guest post by Unlikely sponsors Preston & Skipper McWithey)

"My husband and I were so excited when we saw a letter from HopeChest last week that appeared to be a letter from our sponsored kiddo!  We opened it up to find a hand written (in English and in cursive!) letter from our 3rd grader, Asad. There was no translation as he wrote every word!  He told us about his family and their names (7 total) and talked about what he liked to eat and drink.  He wrote that his school garden is beautiful!  The second line in his letter stated that he wanted to meet us which affirms our decision even more to go to the Good Samaritan School this summer!  We are so excited to meet Asad and his family and to actually build a relationship with him during the next 10 years of his life while he is in school.  It is so awesome to partner with Unlikely Sons and Daughters to do this together!"


Skipper & Preston are leading a team of potential new sponsors on a trip to India this summer. They are hopeful to spread the word to their friends & church partners in hopes of rewriting even more children's story from poverty to hope.
