Mikendia J.

Birthday: August 12, 2013 Sponsorship #: 2017-00-144JHC

Mikendia is an outgoing, energetic six year old who just moved with her mother and sister to a new house in Hope Center village. She is so excited about the new home that God provided for her and her family. Her father died recently, and at the time he died, they were living in a borrowed home that belonged to her father’s family. After he died, the family decided they could no longer live there because they could not pay rent. The people there were mean to her and her mother and sister. It had become unsafe for them to live there and they prayed every day that God would provide a way for them to move. Recently someone told them that God had answered their prayers! A team was coming to Hope Center and was building a house just for them! They were so excited! Now they have moved into their home and are preparing to go to school. Because their mother has no source of income, they cannot attend school without a sponsor. Mikendia says she loves to play with toys, clean house with her mom and sister Weslan, and she loves to make her own toys. She wants to be a cook when she grows up and cook good food for people, maybe even at Hope Center! She says that the thing she loves most about her beautiful country is the beautiful beach and the sea that surrounds the island.

**Please note that each year, we depend on village volunteers whose understanding of the measuring process may create variations in accuracy. Often times, children do not know their age or birthday, and sometimes they measure smaller or larger because of illness. We do the best we can to give accurate updates, but there are cultural constraints that we cannot avoid. Also, these measurements were made in March of 2022. The child may or may not have promoted to the next grade by the 2022-2023 school year. Final exams had not been taken when the update was made. You can assume that the child will move on to the next grade up, but it is not guaranteed. Thank you for your understanding.
