About Me

Sharing Christ’s love with mothers who give birth in the social Hospital of Heredia, Costa Rica by giving “new mother care packages”. Packages consist of baby and mother necessities needed during the hospital stay. Packages will be hand delivered to the mothers at the hospital as supplies and donations are received. Basic kits include, knitted hat and or receiving blanket, diapers, washcloth, baby soap, water bottle and christian literature. We rely upon U.S. based knitting circles to help with the making of hats for the newborns and take donations both of supplies and monitarily from churches and individuals who wish to be of support this ministry.

Two years too long.



    Alot has changed for my family as well as for Hazels. We had to take a break from chubby cheeks during that time. While my family and I looked to find where God would have us settle in the U.S. Hazel and her family also made a move to the U.S. for a time to take care of family obligation.  During that time she gave birth to a baby girl! My family and I recently purchased a home and are settling in now.  Hazel, and her family had returned to Costa Rica and with her baby being a little older she was able to return to the hospital. She had a great visit a few months back with our beloved Xenia.

I recently made contact with some sweet ladies who belong to a church that was taking a trip to Costa Rica. one of the ladies was going on the trip and was kind enough to carry down a couple suitcases of kits for me that contained the remainder  of items I had received for Chubby Cheeks. It was hard to see the suitcases go where my body could not.  But my heart and prayers were well packed within.


Kalanis birth is how all this got started and what a joy it was to see her helping me make these kits.
