MARLYS HEALY


Marlys Healy was in Cambridge last week. She and her husband heard a calling on their life (29 years ago) to start an orphanage in the Philippines. They answered that call, started a shelter for orphaned and abandoned children, and are still helping to rescue children from a life with little hope. She understands the meaning of putting your faith to work.

Marlys gets to see our children every day. She is able to share stories with us about our kids and makes us feel connected. I am inspired to think of all the children she has touched. Ours are only three of hundreds... I thought I would introduce her to you because she means so much to me and my family. If you think of her, her husband and the ministry at CSC, pray for a blessing on their life and their work in the Philippines. Roselyn, Romeo and Rodrigo would not be coming to live with us without the vision and faithful efforts of Marlys and many other people like her. It is called "the ripple effect" and it is changing lives. I would definitely consider her...a hero.
