You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.
And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart.
You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.
You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes.
You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.


Deuteronomy 6:5-9

Another good day.

Today we got a lot of work done.

Painting.

Cleaning.

Building.

Loving on the kids.

Playing with the kids.

Had the best dinner ever at the guest house.

There have been a lot of changes at the O since I've gotten involved. I like what I see.

The children at Three Angels Children's Relief are LOVED.

God is great.

Let's see, some random child updates:

Dave can recognize numbers and say most of his ABC's.

Ellie, Matu, Jamesly, Kethia and Kervens can say their whole ABC'S.

Rebecca, Sara and Jean Baptiste are absolutely adorable in their school uniforms.

Reece, Daniel, Steeve and Elmise are all seeming so grown up...big kids!

Jonathon is as cute and funny as ever.

Stephania is thriving downstairs.

Guerwyns (spelling?) is a baby boy looking for a forever family.

Lukeson is also a baby boy looking for his forever family.

Julie and Darwing are CUTE. Julie seems to have settled in, last time I was here, she was very new, and seemed so unsure of herself. Not any more!

Sebastian and Renato are cute cute cute! And happy too.

Hermann aka Armon is doing well. He took a very long nap today.

I'm sure there are others, but that's all I have time for now.

Keep your prayers coming!

G'nite.

  1. Isn't Rebecca just adorable in her school uniform? I got a picture in the mail a few days ago of her wearing her uniform and our entire family SCREAMED out loud because we couldn't believe how big she looks in it!

    I'm so impressed that my big boy can say his ABC's! I love that they are homeschooling the kids and using the ABEKA curriculum! Kervens will be able to fit right into our homeschooling routine and I'll know exactly what level to start him at!

    I haven't been to the O in almost a year, but even from all of the pictures I've seen I can tell that TAs has changed a lot... for the better! So glad my kids are at a wonderful orphanage.

    Kiss them for me!

    Praying for you,
    Cara
