Day 15 Africa Mission Trip 2012-2013 (Last Day at Siita Nest)

Hand Hygiene

Today is our last day here at Kingfisher's and Siita Nest Orphanage which means my last day to see my daughter, Margaret.  Thank you Lord for allowing me to see your goodness in people, like Mama Alice.  I know I have a lot of work to do with my character.  Thank you for giving me the privilege to see you in the people of Africa.  Mama Alice is a great example of a mother's tough love.  I was able to find two new children to sponsor.  Joel and Jerusha, both 7 years old.  There's another girl who wrote me a letter requesting to be sponsored.  She's 18 years old.  We'll pray about her and hope that God will find her a sponsor.

 This is Lillian.  She was Siita Nest child and now attending the University to be a journalist.  She dreams of becoming a news anchor. 


 This is beautiful Jerusha, she's Joy's sponsor child.

Our beautiful daughter Margaret.

 Laura was such a magnet to the kids.  As soon as we get out of our van, the kids just latch on to her.



Beautiful Esther.  


Our last day and goodbyes were endless.  We were supposed to head back to our hotel around 11:45 am and we didn't leave the orphanage until about 1 pm.  Kids were just hanging on to us and we were hanging on to them.
