Ecuador

Sandra works as an Alfalit teacher and believes that God has called her to this very special purpose of teaching groups of teenagers living there in her province in Ecuador. Teenagers that never had the opportunity to learn how to read or write. Along with teaching them basic education and literacy, she and her husband own a sports facility that teaches kids and teenagers how to play soccer and gets them involved in sports activities. They believe that sports activities teach kids discipline that can help keep them focused on studying… The work that Alfalit is carrying out is so important and gives these adolescents a place for learning, a place for spiritual formation in which they learn principles and values, and a place where they can find hope. Unfortunately, drug trafficking is taking a very large field in Ecuador, and Alfalit’s work educating these boys is so important and can help prevent them from getting involved in illicit activities. Education changes lives… Sandra knows that the time she is investing in the lives of these boys and everything she is teaching them will have positive repercussions in their lives and eternity.
