Day 7 - Hope

Gloria felt very sad as a child because her dad left and she moved a lot with her mom and sisters. At 16, she became the saddest and loneliest she had ever been at a church event, but someone talked about hope and prayed for her, changing her heart. Gloria now helps others find hope with a project called The Hope Booth.

Jesus gave hope to a lonely and sad Samaritan woman. Gloria’s story shows how sharing hope as Jesus did with the Samaritan woman at the well, can make a big difference in people's lives.
