Ophanage

Since, I have gotten back from the states, which was on the 4th, I have been to the orphanage twice. I recently just got back from reading the story about Jericho and Israelites marching around the walls. The kids really enjoyed the story. Afterward, we tried to reenact the walls with chairs and marching around. The week before this one, we played duck, duck, goose after Megan read a story. They especially liked playing this game. The kids really touch my heart with their laughter and smiles. There was one girl who kept smiling from ear to ear even though she didn't really know how to play the game. Also, I was amazed at how much the kids look up to us. They chose a lot to be the goose.

Today when we went there, I got a little sad thinking about how they are not really wanted by their parents and are not being showed the love that they need. However, the people that work there are doing a really good job there. One girl asked if we would take her to our house. I don't realize how blessed I am by being raised by the parents that I have. I pray that these precious kids will learn that God loves them and wants them so much.
