Orphanage

Orphange

Yesterday I went to an Orphange about ten minutes away from the base. We weren't there long, but we got a tour of the grounds and got to spend time with the kids. It was amazing how the children just wanted to be touched and payed attention to. When we saw their rooms my first thought was "where's all their stuff?" It was a nice facility, but the kids didn't have any belongings except some shoes under the bed and an occasional toothbrush on a bed. Becka made a "mouse" out of my head wrap and made it jump on people. I think I was more entertained than the kids! it was so funny! The girl in this picture really touched my heart. She asked me what I want to do and I told her I want to be a pastor. She said, "Oh, like me!" She's eleven and is already called to be a pastor "Anywhere." I received my calling from the Lord around that age as well, so I was really blessed to see how God has worked in similar ways in our lives even in such different and far apart countries.
