Produktinformationen zu „Family Time (ePub)“
In the fall of 2007, the author thought he would head south for the winter with his RV and find a nice place to take a vacation from the cold. He had done volunteer work in the past and thought he might visit a couple of orphanages he had heard about from friends of his and see if he could be of assistance.
It wasnt long before he was deeply involved with a group of fifty children 24-7 playing dad to many, and sharing in some events that were incredibly funny, and too many times heartbreaking.
Reading this story will give you a feel for the politics, the reality of corrupt churches and the politics played with unfortunate children in that country we all know so little about south of the border. After returning for three winters to the southern Sonoran Desert to be with the huge family he had become a part of, bizarre events and political moves by the churches involved and the government bring the completely true story to a climax.

Autoren-Porträt von Jacob Geimer
The author was born and raised in Two Rivers, Wisconsin. He attended the University of Wisconsin–Madison and worked in a hospital for severely mentally retarded children for two and a half years, and then moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he worked for a landscaping company for one year where he became acquainted with the Mexican-Indian culture. After a year there, he moved to the mountains of Colorado where he lived off and on for thirty-five years. In 1980, he went to Costa Rica where he was in a Peace Corps training school for four months where he became proficient in the Spanish language. Choosing to not enter the Peace Corps, he returned to Colorado and, in 1985, traveled to the Philippines and was married to a Filipina. He moved to the Philippines permanently in 1992 and lived there for ten years. For four years, he taught non-denominational Bible classes in the jails in the capital city of the island where he lived.
In the fall of 2007, he traveled to Mexico with his truck and travel trailer where he lived in an orphanage for five months for three consecutive winters, which is the basis of the book Family Time. An Adventure in Mexico. He now lives on the family farm outside of Two Rivers, Wisconsin, and is developing a subdivision.
