Sarah and the Children of the Mountain Orphange


































All the children of Haiti moved my heart. Precious gifts from God. Sarah the little one I am holding, stole my heart and we colored her picture with her brother Eziekel. The artwork of the children's feet on the wall behind us was created by a team that came in before us.
This is what a typical orphange in Haiti looks like. It had seperate rooms for the boys and girls and they shared beds. They cook outside over an open fire of sticks and eat standing at the long tables we were coloring at. There were no chairs. They did have clothing and worn shoes. They did have a water system so they didn't hve to carry water. Most children have never taken a shower.

In the group picture, that is Jiffy our Translator, who was singing with the children.

We were able to bless them with suckers, jump ropes,bubbles, frisbees, flip flops along with coloring books, crayons and some oatmeal. Stephanie was having a great time with Sarah and the bubbles. To be the hands and feet of God and the love He has for us will forever be an experience that will bless me.
