Today was so much fun! During our work project time we had no clothes to mend so the boys went out and worked on bikes and painted the snack shop while us girls stayed behind to do laundry and help out in the kitchen. Lee and Bren were able to clean some of the kiddos teeth today, but still have a tool that does not work quite right, so prayers would be greatly appreciated for that.
It was great to be able to connect with the kids at a closer and more personal level as we helped them with things they do every day. I now feel like I can fully appreciate every meal they make for us because I know how much work it takes. The snack shop now looks great with its shiny new coat of white paint.
Today we were able to sew with the kids during our activity time. It was great to see how amazingly creative all of these kids are. The older kids were able to learn how to or prefect the art of sewing, while the little ones made button bracelets and decorated pillow cases.
This experience has been so amazing and I can’t believe what I have been missing all of these years. I am already very excited to come back next year, and for many years to come! Thank you to all of you who have been supporting us with your prayers.
