On Dec 1st, the ICA staff threw a special pre-Xmas party for the kids at Papa G's Restaurant in Lake Elsinore. The kids had fun playing video games, doing crafts and eating pizza!!! This was the last event before going back to the PI so it was an emotional one...
Pictured here are all the orphans except for one, John (9 yrs old).
Pictured top (left to right): Inggo (8), Reggie (12), Leo (12), Francis (12), Bryan (9), JB (9), Chris (14), Lalaine (10), Marie (10).
Pictured bottom (left to right): Catherine (10), Jessica (12), Julius (12), and Joven (15).
Out of the 14 children, as of this day, 8 have adoptive parents. All of the children will need to return to the PI because they are here only with temporary Visas. But, after going through the adoption process and paperwork, the adopted kids will return to the US with their parents within 6-12 months, depending on the paperwork approval. The children who are still needing parents are Bryan and Catherine (siblings), Chris, Marie, Jessica and Joven.
If you are interested in more information about these children, please contact the ICA office at 951-695-3336 or contact me at 951-704-2404.
