Today our interview team took a risk and walked out onto the
ice of a frozen lake. We thought it was risky to step onto that lake. That
first step was hard. It took courage, and it forced us to reflect on our host
kids and the huge risk they take when they choose to come to America. They will
face so many unknowns...our team was unsure if the ice would hold their weight,
these kids are unsure if a host family will be able to hold the weight of their
heart. They to have the courage to face weeks inundated with a language they
don't understand, courage to try new foods and to leave behind their friends
and all that is familiar to them! Will you choose to step out onto the ice and
host a child this summer?
If you are interested in hosting a child this summer please check out the New Horizons for Children website. Matching will begin soon!
