Hellos & Goodbyes
I had heard about "hidden" correspondents, a problem with the new system, but just recently experienced it myself! Nuraisha and Fabiola were assigned to us, but didn't show up on our account, so I didn't know about either until we received letters from both girls! Once we received the letters, the tech team at Compassion was able to make the girls visible! Nuraisha is just 4 years old and her birthday is May 17, the same as Eric's! And Fabiola is 5! Both girls are from Tanzania.
Also, our Sebastian from the Dominican Republic moved, and the area where he moved no longer has a Compassion project. I am sad to see him no longer able to attend. Please be praying for him, especially since his brother is deaf and mute. In Sebastian's place, his sponsor chose another child from the Dominican Republic, and we have the honor of writing! Please meet Yeremy Orlando!
