Hearts In Motion: Daniel Meeting his Sponsor

Jan had the rewarding experience of meeting her sponsored child in March and what a sight to watch. The excitement, joy, love, smiles, hugs and tears were so overwhelmingly powerful! It's a true gift to have the opportunity to create a relationship seperated by language, land, water, and money. Feeling so very close to an individual, having never met them, but knowing what an impact you are having on their life is priceless... especially once you get the opportunity to meet them in person!

Share in Jan's experience of meeting Daniel through her words and pictures.

"Daniel - Kids are very special no matter where they live! Daniel is one of those really special kids that have come into my life and my grandchildrens' lives. At Christmas time his sponsorship was a gift to my grandchildren. I was able to meet him when I was in Guatemala in March. Part of my mission was to bring pictures and stories back home with me. Daniel lives on a beautiful mountain with his family. His family includes his mother, grandmother, older brother and younger sister. I was able to meet him and hug him. What an emotional experience for me. He was such a handsome boy and thrilled to meet me 'face to face' as I was to meet him. He is a very bright young man and the note he wrote me was such beautiful handwriting and so well done for a 6 year old. He was thrilled with the gifts I took and the pictures he received of my family. Daniel hopes to become a doctor and I truly hope he can accomplish that goal. Maybe the little help that we are giving him now will help him become a doctor. I have been on 4 HIM trips but this was truly the highlight of them all. Thanks to all that made Daniel and my meeting possible."
