Friday Afternoon
06/12/2010
We threw a party in honor of the nannies on our last afternoon at the orphanage. We had brought them gifts from America, ranging from neck-ties for the director to bath and body lotions for the nannies, and more... They were such gracious hosts while we have been serving them that we wanted to leave a tangible thank you for allowing us the opportunity to share the love of God with their babies, and with them. We bought a huge cake, and had the opportunity to talk to them through our interpreter Qiao (Chow). Also, the director of the orphanage wrote us a very touching letter thanking us for coming, and inviting us back again.
One of the women who worked at the orphanage really wanted us to play basketball with her 15 year old son "Tony". We ended up traveling to his school on Friday afternoon, and 4 of us (Scott, Scott, Qiao, and Tony) took on 2 other teams in a match where the winner of short games stayed on the court... We won 3 out of 4 games here and had a great time. We brought several of the girls of our team as cheerleaders who gathered a very large crowd for our game. Fun times for all!
