Samaritan Project

General Update for Samaritan Project

 We were able to do 3 of our normal Samaritan Projects and the last two that were being provided by our extra “family funding” (marked with “*”) finances for the month of July.

Samaritan Project Update for Dos Quebradas *

Santiago Gutierrez is 71 years old and has been a widower for 8 years. He works in the fields doing agricultural work, earning about $40 a month. His house was in very poor condition and the church from Dos Quebradas offered to help him. His comments “I am thankful to God for this help that was given to me to provide better housing for me to live in. May God bless all that had a part in making this possible.”

 Samaritan Project Update for La Puente *

Juana Cervantes Ramos is 72 years old and has been a widow for 8 years. Juana is unable to work and her neighbors provide her with food to help her. She receives assistance from the government of $40 a month. Her house was in very bad shape and the church helped her to change that. Her comments “I am so thankful for my new tin roof. It is so much safer than the palm one that I had that was so deteriorated. Now, I collect the water sent from heaven (rain water) to be able to wash my clothes and to use for bathing etc. May God bless those that are making this project available to people such as myself.”

Samaritan Project Update for Agua Zarca

Carlos Martinez Salazar is 60 years old and lost his wife a year ago. He cuts firewood and sells it to support himself, earning about $25 a month. His house was in poor condition. His comments “I am so grateful to have received this assistance to improve my housing. May God bless Sister Nancy and the people that made this possible.”

Samaritan Project Update for Matazano

Elena Garcia Perez is 60 years old and has been a widow for 10 years. Her children are grown. She works doing agricultural field work, earning about $25 a month to support herself. She was unable to improve her housing. Her comments “I am thankful to God and to Servant Ministries for the help that they gave me. May God bless and multiply back to everyone the assistance that I have received.”

Samaritan Project Update for Marimba

Gonzalo Interiano is 60 years old and has been a widower for 17 years. His children are grown. Gonzalo earns about $40 a month, doing agricultural field work for others. Gonzalo attends the Servant Ministries church in Marimba and the church reached out to him to help improve his housing. His comments “Thank you for the help that you have given to me. I was unable to do this on my own. I thank God and Servant Ministries for making my dream come true, to have better housing. May God bless you richly.”

Below is a table that shows how many people have been helped through this Samaritan Project through our Servant Ministries churches partnering and working together to impact people in their communities; showing the love of God in a tangible and practical way!
