SYLVIA SAYS:

The children are all doing well. Enrique (age 4) was adopted but returned to the house a few days later. He was ecstatic to be back at Dorcas House! He will be going to Kinder, and several of the children will move on from Kinder to elementary school. Some will also move on to secondary school.
 During the February visit, the children, staff and volunteers all got hooked on making valentines. Everyone had a great time.
QUARTERLY MEDICAL TRIP About four times a year a medical crew consisting of physicians, nurses, dentists and pre-med students from local universities go to Dorcas House to care for the health of the children.
They obviously enjoyed the experience! 
UPCOMING EVENT
Please join us on a visit to Dorcas House in Tijuana on Saturday, March 5th. The children love return visitors and newcomers alike and always look forward to our visits. We'll meet in the St. Paul's Cathedral parking lot ( 2728 Sixth Ave ) at 11:30 AM and return to San Diego by 6:00PM. We carpool down to the border parking lot, cross the border on foot and grab some lunch at our favorite outdoor restaurant. After that, we take a group taxi to the foster home where we visit and play with the children. It will be a fun day you will never forget. Please plan to bring about $20 per person (or $40 per family) to cover the cost of transportation and insurance (no one is turned away for lack of funds). Expect to spend another $5 to $10 per person on lunch and incidentals. A valid passport is required. Please contact me, Suzanne Warren, by Thursday March 3rd at sharp.healthcare@sbcglobal.net (my preference) or at home 619-437-8700 to let me know if you plan to attend.
If you are unfamiliar with the Dorcas House ministry, please visit Dorcas House for more information.
