Hello Woodridge family Angie here from Haiti :)  Today we were so blessed to send half of our group to Gertrude's Orphanage and the other half to Home for sick and dying babies. Our experiences, although miles apart geographically, both held the commonality of thinking we could help bring smiles to their faces when in fact we all were the ones whose lives are forever touched.

Loving worship in the name of Jesus came today in the form of things like, a pick up soccer game, color crayon pictures on the sidewalk, a group of little girls getting their finger nails polished possibly for the first time ever, and rubbing lotion on the skin of disabled children.

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these. Matthew 19:14

As Day 2 comes to a close we are all very grateful knowing we are being lifted up in prayer by everyone back home. We take rest in knowing the Lords hand protects us each night….. as does our guard dog Bacon. :)
