Matthew 25:34-40

(Versión en Español sigue la de Inglés)

Pastor Franciso Canul Maldonado, from “Roca Firme” El Milagro, recently shared this powerful story:

For the last few days, we have had several people living in our house; a man and his wife and their seven children, two of whom have third level anemia. I took the children to the hospital and the doctor wanted to report their condition to the authorities, but I told him I was a pastor and that I would take responsibility for them, to which the doctor replied: OK, let’s see what we can do. We are in the process of getting rid of their stomach parasites and afterwards we will give them vitamins along with their 6 siblings.



This man (the children’s father) had been run over by a taxi cab in a hit and run accident. He was left for dead. A month later he had surgery and they place 9 pins in his foot, which is why he won’t be able to work for 3 months.

In our home we give them three meals a day, which means my family has grown to 14. We help the children by giving them milk.

It is not all sadness. They have received Christ in their hearts and now we take them to the El Milagro mission.


The mission members pooled resources to buy them some food to help them out, but the medical attention and the medicines are expensive, but God will provide. On August 24 I will take him to the doctor for a check up.
We are working in God’s ministry and we ask that you continue to pray for us in this place. We have plans to open a daycare center in this place by November.

En Español:

Hace unos dias estan viviendo en mi casa unas personas; un hombre con su esposa y siete hijos de los cuales 2 de ellos tenian 3er grado de anemia, a los ni os los lleve al hospital y el médico queria reportarlo a las autoridades pero yo le dije que era un pastor y que me haría cargo de ellos por lo que el medico me dijo; esta bien vamos a ver que podemos hacer. Y ya ahora lo estamos desparasitando y posteriormente vitaminando juntamente con sus otros 6 hermanos
Este hombre ( el papa de los niños) fue atropellado por un taxi que se dio a la fuga dejandolo por por muerto. Despues de 1 mes fue operado y le pusieron 9 clavos en el pie; por lo que no podrá trabajar en 3 meses
En mi casa le damos las tres comidas por lo que mi familia aumento a 14 y ayudamos con leche a los niños
No todo es tristeza ellos ya recibieron a cristo en su corazon y ahora los llevamos a la mision en el Milagro
Juntamente con los hermanos hicimos una despensa para poder ayudarlos pero el servicio medico y los medicamentos son un poco costosos pero dios proveera este dia 24 de agosto debo llevarlo nuevamente al doctos a nuevos chequeos
Estamos trabajando en la obra de dios y pedimos continuen orando por nosotros en este lugar; tenemos planes de poner una guarderia en este lugar en el mes de noviembre.
