Mrs. Trull-Macmillan’s family are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.
Se have heard and are deeply moved by Bárbaras “Promotion”.
Our heart goes out to Bárbara’s family and our prayers and love are with you and towards you.
Barbara was not only a wife, mother, sister, friend and a good christian woman but also a woman of prayer and a mother to many children here at Rancho Del Rey Children’s Home. Today these children have a home, food in their tummys, a clean bed to sleep on, a secure place to study and a hopful future, thanks in part, to Bárbara’s years of faithful support towards this home.
“Well done they good and faithful servant, entre thou into the joy of thy Lord.”

May you find comforted in knowing she is now where she longed to be and she now sees Jesus in all His glory.
