pre-school graduation

After much anticipation, preparation and practices the pre-school students
at Sonshine Learning Center had their moving-up ceremony.

Each child spoke in front of everybody. They told the world what they wanted to be when they grew up. Some wanted to be doctors, some nurses, others teachers. Now they will actually have the opportunity to fulfill their dreams, despite the situation that they were born into.

The students sang and danced to high school musical... they sang about “soaring” and “flying,” how “there’s not a star in heaven that we can’t reach.” It was so moving because they could actually believe what they were singing.


I'm honestly speechless when I try to describe how I feel about these children. As I watched them, prayed with them, got nervous for them and congratulated them so much pride welled up in my spirit along with the tears.
Each and every one have so much potential. I was honored to play a part in this exciting time of their lives. Because people obeyed God's calling to start the Sonshine Center and to sponsor these children, anything is made possible to them. And that's a beautiful thing.
