Last night was our last night with these unbelievable children! We all gathered at the orphanage and had a chance to hang out and play with all the kids! We played games and exchanged some letters! At the end of the night we all formed a circle and shared how important, and thankful we were for each other! We told the kids how they had changed our lives and how much we love each and everyone of them! They are our family now, and we are so thankful that God has his hand on every single kid at the orphanage! Even though goodbye is never easy we all tried to find peace in the fact that these kids are all in an amazing place where they receive love from God and each other everyday!
Today we are heading to Bantheay to hang out with the the kids at that orphanage for a little bit then we will get back on our bus and spend the rest of our time in siem reap reflecting on our unimaginable time with 38 wonderful kids!
Thank you so much for all your prayers and support... We saw our amazing God in these kids everyday this week!
My heart is full of gratitude as I read your beautiful reflection this morning. It seems as though you all feel God's love in gloriously abundant ways, even in the midst of challenging circumstances. I smile through tears of joy as I read your words of faith, Kathryn. Prayers continue for the safety of the team as you travel to connect with more children. May you all feel that "peace that passes understanding" during each transition.
