"Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of others. Etiquette is the good and acceptable form of manners in a given culture. Never have a superior attitude as you compare cultures. Everyone is precious to Jesus. Each is the focus of His love."
Yesterday Lisa and I went out to the countryside to meet the remaining 10 children sponsored by AOH. It was yet another incredible day! We visited many homes, some situated on the side of a mountain! We walked up and down steep paths and through farm land to visit the homes of about 8 of the 10 we met that day. Like the other two days, we were agian humbled to see the conditions in which they lived but were met with smiles and thanks. We are tiered but after we met the last child we now feel that the task God had designed for us here in this short time is coming to a close. We have met over 60 kids and visited over 20 homes since we arrived. However, we still have a lot to do before we leave Rwanda. Tonight we will have a meeting with the AOH staff in Kigali and then tomorrow will go to the market to buy supplies for Saturday when we will meet with the Kigali children again. We are busy girls but are loving it! Please keep up the prayers and thank you so much for followingt the blog, it means so much to us!
For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in His sight. In love He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will-- Eph 1:4,5
We are so very thankful you are able to be there and accomplish so much for Anchor of Hope! It is wonderful to read your blog and feel your love and enthusiasm, as well as your humility and weariness. You are doing God's work and we thank you! Praying!
