While Liz, the director of Hogar Luz de Vida, has been on maternity leave the past few months, a dear friend – Carmen Adriana Alcantara – has been doing her best to fill the role. She has done a wonderful job keeping the minstry on track and in order. Liz gave birth to her beautiful son just a few weeks after the dedication of our teen home and getting everything moved in. It was a crazy time, but Carmen has been a blessing by seeing that the details on our building were finished, by helping train new staff and getting our teens ready for another school year. Carmen is currently living in Lima, with her husband and their two sons. She made quite the sacrifice to travel to Trujillo each week to carry out the work! Gracias a Carmen!
