Hannah & Tera Caring for Malnourished Children

Hannah and Tera help the Sisters of Charity (Mother's Theresa's order) care for 31 malnourished children aged 3 mos-17 years. As we visited the care center the children were very affectionate with both Tera and Hannah.

Over lunch in San Juan with Ian and Drew, Hannah and Tera shared stories of their work and lives in Las Matas.

Hannah and Tera live catty-corner from each other and enjoy their proximity. Both young women live in families with daughters about their ages with mothers who say they care for our students, "like my own daughters."

I really enjoyed visiting the care center and was quite impressed with both Tera and Hannah's work and dedication to the children there.
