Today my in-laws, Pastor Mike and Gloria Naranjo celebrate their 31st anniversary. In 31 years, they have had 3 biological children, and have taken the call to embrace the fatherless literally, by adopting 8 children, advocates for  numerous foster children and have taken many into their homes, established churches, men’s and women’s recovery homes in their community.

Pastor Mike-Visionary, Encourager, Selfless, with a love and heart for the people of New Mexico!

Gloria- A mother of many,  a giver, the one who opens her home to everyone, and loves to cook for everyone! (Great enchiladas!) al estillo Nuevo Mexico
