Beautiful 1st Day at the Orphanage...
06/07/2010
The orphanage was situated in a quiet area. The orphanage itself is in a pristine place where the orphans were well cared for.
We were welcomed with an incredible hospitality. It is obvious that we are wanted and appreciated. The director of the orphanage gave us a warm speech to let us know how glad they are that we have come to help. We assured him that we are here to serve them, and to let us know of any ways we can serve them. We were given a tour of the facility, and then allowed to go from room to room to meet the nannies and the babies. Most of them are between 1 month and 2 years old.
There are 5 rooms with 5 to 6 children per room. We got right into the swing of things helping the nannies, holding the babies, and getting to know our surroundings. It was an impactful first day, especially on us. We are overwhelmed by the need, but seeing God's gracious hand in bringing us here to help.
