Praying for a Miracle

Little Peruvian JESUS was born in Ayacucho in May 2012.

Jesus' birth mother was a victim of rape and abandoned him at the hospital. Shortly after she abandoned him, he was sent to the Casa Luz Orphan Care Center and was severely malnourished. In the first months of life, the doctors detected some problems with his psychomotor skills and told his caregivers that Jesus would never walk. Psychomotor skills are those skills that you do so often that you don't have to think about how to do them, like walking or typing.

A few weeks ago, the staff at Casa Luz took Jesus to Lima to have a special study done and brain damage was detected. Right now, the damage affects the mobility in his legs. The doctor said that as Jesus grows they will see the extent of the brain damage and the areas of his body that are affected. Even with this sad news, his caregivers continue to pray for his healing and have already seen improvement. Jesus can now move himself around in a baby walker. Jesus is a very happy and content little boy who brings so much joy to those around him.

His caregivers say "We know it's hard to go up for adoption, since couples want healthy kids. But we also know that nothing is impossible with God. Jesus is a very beautiful baby. We pray that he grows under the love of God and will have a very good family who loves him."

Please join us in believing God for healing and a family for Jesus.
