She really does a great job explaining alot of what is going on in this family. While they have a mother, these children are basically orphans working to survive. I remember one of the first times that I went to the church I met these children and was told that the one girl (Jessica) was just told several times this week by her mother that she needed to go and become a prostitute to help support the family... because it was implied that she was not doing her share.

Today I found out that a few people from the church went to their house/shack yesterday and worked to scrub at least some of the dirt and filth away. They also worked to hand wash all of their clothes which had just been piles of dirt. These 5 children share a double and a single mattress between the two of them and which are dirty, foul, and nasty. Yet the children were so thankful for this and said that they would sleep so much better that night.
Please keep this family in your prayers. These are truly wonderful children that are each beautiful and unique. They are all sweet and caring, and excited to learn more about Christ.
