To know the Paredes family is to love them. Jesse, Anna, and their three boys are such gifts to ECA, SCC, and their community. They are a family who exude the love of Jesus, and who are always willing to jump in and give of themselves any time someone is in need! Now our precious friends are in need, and it is OUR turn to give back to them! As some of you may know, Jonathan, their youngest son, had brain surgery on October 6th. Anna is his incredible caregiver and has been with him day in and out, which comes at the cost of being off of work while Jonathan recovers. It is expected that Jonathan will be in a rehab hospital until December. While that alone is hard enough, Jesse is a federal employee and has been without pay for a while now as well, with no guarantee of when that income will return. In the midst of all of the hard things this family is facing right now, the financial strain is something we can help with! Will you join me in helping ease the financial burden on this family? Let's be the hands and feet of Jesus and give back to this precious family!
