Short Video

Kevin Miller, one of the American missionaries living in Guateamala working for Hearts for Heaven right now, posted this short video of a child walking for the first time. "Brian" (as he is named in the video) needed a walker, and this is a video of him using it. It is a touching, and powerful video. The link is to Facebook

There are thousands of kids like this in Guatemala who are born with handicaps and defects because of various health problems. Carbon Monoxide poisoning from the fumes of the stoves in the homes causes many of these birth defects. Another cause is inadequate drinking water.

Whatever the cause, the result is the same: AMAZINGLY BRAVE KIDS. They have to face challenges that we can't even imagine. And they do it with a smile on their face.
