The best week of the summer so far
This week was awesome!
I was able to connect with every one of the 23 souls God
entrusted to us. Each one had a unique story ranging from wonderful homes to
shattered lives. Children struggling with faith because they witnessed their
father desert the family and children who’s hearts are on fire for Christ and
eager to learn more.
One child in particular touched my heart. As I gave him a
piggyback ride, he told me about his drug-addicted parents and how he lived
with his grandmother. His only pair of shoes had a hole in the bottom and he
had eczema all other his body. His behavior was inexcusable at times but his
tender hugs made my day. He desired attention and love, which I did my best to
provide. These stories break my heart but make the week all the more memorable.
