THANK YOU FROM T.L.C. MINISTRIES

(The Love of Christ Ministries)

Dear Sr. Bernadette,
We would like you to convey our deep appreciation to all your friends in the Tullylish Parish back in Ireland for their contribution towards our baby home.
Here we continue to be very busy. We have 75 children at the moment. They are all lovely and we continue to enjoy our work with them. Although I think at times we work a little too hard. My daughter, Pippa is suffering from burnout at the moment and needs a few months rest. To date we have placed 850 babies into wonderful, loving adoptive families.
Here is a picture of little Camilla. She is one of our newborn babies. Her mother put her into the “Hole in the Wall” which is a ministry that allows mothers to put their babies into a hole in their wall. There is a little bed inside and somebody is always on duty. When the babies are collected there, they call us and we fetch the babies from them. We have received many in this way.

Camilla is a little treasure.

She is developing beautifully and is being prepared for adoption.

This process will take about 4 months.

I thought you would probably like to hear a real story about a baby and how they proceed along our timeline until they arrive at their new families.

It is always bitter-sweet to see them go but I do keep in touch with each little one and when they are older they usually come to visit me and to see where their tender roots began.

This is also always a great privilege for me.

Thank you once again for your support.

God bless you!

Warm regards and gratitude!
