Day 3

Today began as a challenging day, but flexibility was the key.  The ladies in our group enjoyed working with the Lord's Kitchen passing out rice and vegetables to 150 children. The men did some construction work at the boys' home. 

Natalie and Ernest, two of our team members, are sharing what they loved about today and their experiences so far . . .

Thoughts from Natalie ~ "Today I woke up in a war zone of thoughts. In one side there where many lies, but on the other side there was the word of God. I spoke about trusting God to the girls, but I came to find that it was me who needed to trust Him and believe that He IS the firm foundation. The children today... I saw them smiling because of the little details that some forget to appreciate in life, like  holding their hands, saying their name, seating together. Their eyes are filled with hope in these moments, like if just for this lapse of time they are home."

Thoughts from Ernest ~ "Challenging start today turned into a memorable and productive day. This beautiful smile makes it all worthwhile."
