First full day: Pediatrics/Orphanage

The first full day the team was here and we have sure done a LOT!  I will let them update with stories/feelings, but basically the morning was spent at the pediatric wing of the general (free) hospital in Port au Prince meeting and praying with patients.  The group sure met a lot of families/little ones and brought much encouragement and joy!  Then, in the afternoon we bought the fruit/milk and food for the orphanage and delivered all!  Handing out mangoes was an experience and quite the introduction to the orphans.  Each child got two mangoes and they were so excited! Then, the team played games with some of the children, evaluated some medical issues and gave advice to others, etc...

Sorry there have been no updates yet but mine.  It has stormed both nights the team is here and we lost internet service due to the cloud cover and winds.  In the morning I am the only one crazy enough to get up this early to blog! (though yesterday due to a watch malfunction they were an hour ahead of schedule)

Thanks for the prayers and if you can pass along this link (and the facebook page too) to the families of the participants if you know them, it would be MUCH appreciated.  If not, they will probably e-mail home.  For some reason that information didn't get passed along and they would like their families to follow the trip and be part too!

(no Madame Josee update but we will get one asap for you)

Adam with Robinson-  how good it is for them to have positive male interaction!  :)  

The group on the balcony overlooking the city.  I wish you could see the blue color of the ocean in the background but those smiles say a LOT!  We had a great time with the children.
