hey there!

Thank you for checking out our blog! Stop by regularly and keep up to date with what we're up to! Here we will be sharing our adventures, heartaches, insights, challenges and probably really random stuff. Phil is a filmmaker with a gift of storytelling. Check out R4P.co to see more of what he does. And Dalene will be writing most of the posts! Ha! We have a passion for bringing awareness to injustice, and spend our days learning and contemplating how to empower the voiceless. With our family and friends, we work through Until Then to help street kids, and are continuously seeking relationships with organizations and individuals who we can join arms with. We hope you enjoy our blog!

Always for the Children

Siempre Para Los Ninos is a children's home just south of Tijuana, Mexico. We spent some time down there a few weeks ago, and Phil made this video to create awareness about the plight of Mexican children, and the rate at which they are abandoned. This film instills hopefulness, as well as encouraging the masses to love on the millions of orphans that we are obligated to care for. Who wouldn't fall in love with these beautiful children?!

If you are interested in visiting Siempre, you are more than welcome. There is a dedicated group from Southern California that goes down every Wednesday afternoon, and there are consistently groups that go down for short term trips from all over the USA.

Enjoy!
