Olga, our translator, is involved with the Saturday orphanage ministry of her church. She teaches the Bible lesson each week and often invites us.
The first time we accompanied her, Olga tied chocolate bars to tree branches. She told the children that the candy represented their dreams. She explained that we must ask for Jesus‘ help to reach our dreams. One by one the children approached Aaron, who was playing the part of Jesus, and asked for his help. Aaron then lifted each child to a chocolate bar.
After the Bible lesson there is a time to play with the children. How do we communicate with them? Through faces, smiles, hugs, and laughter.

I am so excited for you!
May God's light continue to shine on you, and as this time goes by (way too quickly I might add)...may He continue to use you and teach you more about him. May he use you in children's lives in a very special way. I pray that He continues to divinely use you through this time.
Love you both!

This is such a sweet story! Thanks for sharing (along with the adorable picture). You look natural holding a child Beth. :)
We enjoy hearing what is happening on the other side of the globe! We miss spending time with you both, but know God's plan is the best! Can't wait to hear about Aaron's first real winter! :)
We MISS and LOVE you BOTH!
