The group had a great time visiting an orphanage today. A great facility housing about 100 kids of all ages--1-18. They were wonderful kids, and our group enjoyed playing with them for about 90 minutes. The orphanage was about a one hour drive each way.
They enjoyed playing baseball, volleyball, cards, and such. Everyone had a lot of fun. The orphanage is a Christian institution.
Kane is much better. We hope he can go with us tomorrow. The sick girls are still pretty puny. Now Kaleb has joined the ranks of the sick in the quarantine. His doesn't seem to be as severe just yet.
Thanks for all your prayers. We also appreciate the comments you post. I have made it permissible for you to post without signing up to do so now.
Tomorrow is a day-long journey to Santo Domingo for some sightseeing, shopping, passing out gospel tracts, and visiting an orphanage for handicapped children.

ReplyDeleteJessica - I am so happy to see that so far you have not joined the ranks of the ones who have fallen ill - for once I am glad you are not participating!!! Looks like you are starting to loosen up and maybe even enjoying yourself a bit! I hope you are feeling more at ease and not feeling too homesick. I would love to be there - I am very envious of the experiences you are having! We love you, Babe and are so proud of the young woman you are becoming. I know this experience will change your life. We miss you but you will be home before you know it! Have fun - especially Friday but be careful!!! Sunscreen, WATER! and Tylenol!
ReplyDeleteLove, Mom

ReplyDeleteHey! We miss you guys soooo much! Looks like you are having a great time. We are enjoying the slideshows and the kids are so cute.Hope you don't drink from the same jug as the sick ones. Call again if you get a chance. Me and Brett are having a great time at VBS, but, of course, Nathan has not been back since Sun. night. Tell Katelyn and the rest that I miss them. Love ya, Emily ( and Brett and Nathan)
Taylor,
ReplyDeleteHey! We are loving being able to see what you all are doing each day. I've given the blogspot to several people, and they all love it and are praying for each of you. Janice said they are esp. praying for the sick ones. I hope you avoid it, but tell everyone we hope they get better soon.I think we'll get you a donkey for transportation if anything happens to your car. And I wish you could just bring that little girl home with you that you were holding with the sunglasses on. She is a doll!! We love you! Mom
To all the mission team.
ReplyDeleteHope everyone is feeling better and able to continue the great work you are doing on this mission field. The pictures of the children make me want to be there- looks like a place that could use a medical mission team! Enjoy your day in Santo Domingo and we are praying for everyone to be well again. Tim should know all about the sunscreen for the head. Can't wait for all of you to share your pictures and stories you have encountered. Praying for you daily. Beverly
Taylor,
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to see you haven't gotten sick. I'll be praying for you. I hope you have wonderful stories of how God worked through you while you were there. I bet you'll never forget the people you meet. Luv ya! God Bless-Monica
