This is the typical home for a family served by Compassion International child development center EC431 just outside of Quito, Ecuador. Mom, Dad, five boys and two girls live in this house.
Let’s go inside.
Please go here to read the amazing words of our Compassion Bloggers team, see more pictures and videos. And doesn’t all this make you want to give thanks for that roof over your head and everything beneath it. Me too.

Ecuadorian for heart broken
Robin @ Set Your Heart To Seek God says:
I am overwhelmed by how much “unnecessary” I have!
Abba, please bless this home, these rooms, this roof! Bless this Dad, this Mom, these boys, these girls! Continue to awake my numbed soul!
Thank you for sharing!

I am overwhelmed by the truth of these living conditions. I can’t help but feel embarrassed by what I *have*–the comforts and silly things I complain about. But, in this process of living my own individual life, God is tugging at me about how we all live stories for purpose. And so, I ask Him–where will you send me? What will you have me do? I am so humbled.
Rebecca says:
I will never tire of seeing the homes of the poor around the world. I NEED to see this every day, because I easily forget the abundance that I live in.
