School

We've talked before about visiting Addy's Hope Orphanage. A group of people from the US have made a couple trips out this year to build a new Orphanage for them on the road to Marshall. The new orphanage is just a mile or two from a school that offered to take the children for free, if they could furnish their own uniforms. The money was raised for the uniforms and the children started attending last week.


One of the nannies asked if we could come out and take a picture of all the children in their uniforms. They are very excited to have uniforms and be attending school. I'm sure many, if not most, of the children have never been able to go to school.

Waiting for their picture...and school.

It is right at the end of rainy season here, but it was really pouring down rain today. Here's a chicken at the orphanage trying to hide from the downpour.

So when we were finished taking pictures the nannies asked if I'd drive the kids to the couple miles to the school so they didn't get drenched. Here was the smaller load with only 12 kids in the car.

Thank you so much for taking these photos of the kids and posting them! Is it okay to post photos of our 2 kids on our blog?

Also, I wanted you to know that good friends of ours had plans to be SIM missionaries in Liberia this year, but family problems prevented them from going. We will be supporting you with our prayers. Please let us know if there is anything else you need. We appreciate the work you are doing so very much.

If we are ever able to send anything to you to go to our kids at Addy's Hope, please let me know. Right now with adoptions being closed we don't have any traveling families to send things with.

Blessings,
Donna
