yesterday Betsye and I went with a small group that meets once a week at the church here....and every month they do an "outreach". This month they have chosen to go to an orphanage called Cheryl's Childrens home. There are about 65 children living in this orphanage, and it is run down, but at least the children have somewhere to call home and it is better than living in the slum. Some of them are complete orphans and some of them are not. Some of them have been taken away from mentally, sexually, emotionally, and physically abusive homes. We just hung otu with the kids for a few hours and helped do some chores around the home that needed to be done. It was fun! The kids were awesome and sang us some songs to welcome us there. Right now I am off to church! Tomorrow we leave for a village. We will be gone for a week...so I will try my best to write on here while we are at the village.
Feel free to leave comments, thoughts, prayers, or words of encouragement! Thanks! Also, if you have any questions...please ask them! I would be more than happy to answer them or find an answer for you.

Praying for you right now! what was the food like at the orphanage? Vegetables? clean water?Auntie Steph
