Sunday

We went to church this morning and it was so wonderful. It was an older gym setting, chairs with chipped paint in an older business area where many people gathered that love the Lord. I sat down in a chair in the back, and instantly a little girl in tattered clothes with a cough climbed in my lap. I held and rocked her for quite awhile, wondering which one the ladies was her mother. I found out later, while we were helping with the children's ministry, there are many orphans in that church. I would more than love to bring her home and surprise Bill! Wouldn't that be a surprise and wouldn't it be such a blessing to be that easy. To give a child with no home, a home with much love. I love the singing and listening to the language.

As I am typing this on Sunday afternoon, Georgia is giving a guitar to the worship leader that she brought that was donated for this trip. He is a man with a testimony that I want to hear, the Lord literally saved his life as a child through Christians. He and his siblings were severely beaten often.

Yesterday we went to a waterfall, and then to tea at a restaurant/hotel. The flowers and trees are so beautiful here, more beautiful than anyplace I've seen. Bird of Paradise, Angel Trumpets, Lantana, most of these grow wild. There's a tree called the Flame Tree, huge with massive red flowers all over. Here are some pictures of yesterday. I've tried making it easier to post comments.
