Lhordess’ Heart Surgery Was a Success — Thank You!

Update: Praise God — Surgery Successful!

We are grateful to share that Lhordess’ surgery was successfully completed. Because of God's mercy and your prayers and generosity, she is now back home in Baguio with her family and church community—worshipping Jesus.

Her recovery has gone well, and she is now enrolled in a respected tutoring center in her hometown to help her catch up academically and prepare for the next school year, beginning in June 2026. She is also under the ongoing care of a cardiologist in Baguio to ensure her long-term health and continued recovery.

We are deeply thankful for every person who gave, prayed, and shared her story. Your support did more than fund a surgery—it gave Lhordess the opportunity to move forward in God's will for her life with renewed health, hope, and a bright future.

From our hearts, thank you for being part of this miracle.

Lhordess is a sweet, gentle 14‑year‑old from our church in Baguio, Philippines. She is bright, kind, and full of hope. Currently, she faces a life-threatening challenge: a large hole in her heart that demands immediate surgery scheduled for July 17 at the Philippine Heart Center. Without it, her days are sadly numbered. We’re racing against the clock to raise $45,000, covering the estimated cost of the operation, 1–3 months of post‑operative rehabilitation, and the lost wages of her family.

Every dollar you give brings her closer to a full, healthy life. Please donate today —your generosity could be the difference between life and loss for Lhordess. And in the event we raise more than we need, the extra funds will help with other Project Tulay work.
