They Painted Everything!



The last two weeks have been busy here.  A team from my church in Canada came to visit and helped out with some projects for the folks at Act of Kindness.  It was great to have them here and they did a fantastic job of spreading God's love throughout the Chui Valley.  From the moment they got here until the time they left they didn't stop.

They did everything from providing meals and food hampers for the less fortunate to spending quality time with orphans and seniors.  They painted everything from nails to faces to fences and they did it exuding such love.  They have left an indelible mark on the hearts of many here in Kyrgyzstan.  Everyone on the team was absolutely amazing.

Now that the team has gone it's pretty quiet.  I have just spent the last few days catching up with myself.  In the upcoming weeks I want to get back to regular visits at the baby orphanage and I hope to be able to do something at the men's disabled home and Orlovka Orphanage.

I am still trying to raise money to buy warm blankets for the seniors home and coal for needy families as I mentioned in my last blog entry.  http://blairs-page.blogspot.com/2013/09/wellits-worse-than-i-thought.html  I would really appreciate your help in doing this.  Winter can start literally any day and even though winters are short they are deadly in Kyrgyzstan.  To help you can click the link on the right side of the blog for LinK 127 to give on line.  You can also mail a gift to the address below or send an e-transfer to blairslife1@gmail.com.  Please include a note advising that your gift is for me and how you would like me to use it.  Canadian donations are tax deductible but not those by e-transfer.  Please consider helping to save lives.

Please continue to keep me in your prayers.  Thank you for seeing my heart.  Я люблю тебя!
