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.
