A smile and a hug

Isidor Sittenauer, a CFCA sponsor, shares some of his thoughts about his experience on the recent mission awareness trip to El Salvador.

When we first arrived at the CFCA center, I was rather surprised to be in a dormitory-type of setting and by the shock of cold water showers.

However, after visiting some of the homes of the sponsored children, I realized I was living in luxury by comparison. The people we visited were poor, yet they were always ready with a smile and hug. And, despite their housing situation, they always had on spotless clothing.

Every American citizen should appreciate the luxury we live in.
