Sisters of the Lamb of God
In 1998, the Sisters of the Lamb of God
went to Juarez, Mexico and started El
Manantial, a center for disabled
children and young adults that has
grown tremendously. El Manantial
means The Spring, as in a spring of
water gushing forth from its source. In
this case the source is Christ and all of
us are born from this source, with all of
its crosses and blessings. Students
learn life skills, receive physical
therapy, have art classes, go to school.
They have a lot of love and happiness
to share with everyone they meet, a
wonderful witness to the world. El
Manantial even has six very happy
residents!

Learning to walk is always fun and I'm sure
teaching it is equally enjoyable, but the
smiling bit--that's got to be the best part!
