HELPING HAND !!!


As I look at this picture of a little boy hold my hand the first though was lending a helping hand.... After looking at it for some time my question is who is helping who. Yes, by the grace of God we are able to make a huge difference in the lives of these precious children but in return they bring us so much joy... so the thought is who is helping who.... what a honor to have this opportunity.... thanks for being part of making a difference .... one child at a time....
Because of His amazing grace... Bob & Linda

Orphanage project getting a coat of paint...



The work is well on the way with the painting inside and out. With the paint gun that was donated it makes the job go much quicker. Trim will be in white and a burn orange.
