The Alanya Family

They are 7 siblings. Their youngest is 13 months old and they named her Nancy Agustina honoring Nancy Waters and Agustina Hechart. Very cool, ha?


In this picture we see some of them with her grandma in the background. Their parents have been gone for the last two months because they are working on the fields harvesting coffee beans. Meanwhile they are staying with their grandmother.
Francisca, the tallest, is 15 years old and is in 10th grade. She wants to become either a nurse or an obstetrician when she finishes high school because she has seen her mom and her aunts to give birth without the help of a doctor. She is a great student.


This is Emerson posing with his brand new uniform.

It is important to highlight the ministry of Victor and Cesar, coordinators of this work, that are constantly encouraging parents to send their children to school and to the children to do their best.
