Before I left Canada in May I received some blessings that were complete surprises. One of those blessings in particular was enough for a huge blessing in Kyrgyzstan. Since I couldn't get to Kyrgyzstan on this trip I wanted to send the kids from the orphanage in Orlovka on a day trip to Lake Issyk'ul but wasn't able to until that blessing happened. Well, this went farther than I had even expected. Not only did the kids from Orlovka get to the beach this week with a great meal and a chartered boat ride, but there was enough to put towards a second trip taking some disadvantaged families to Issyk'ul.
Let me back up a bit for the benefit of newer readers. Lake Issyk'ul in Kyrgyzstan is the world's 2nd largest saltwater lake and it is surrounded by some of the world's finest beaches and the most amazing mountain scenery. There are lots of resorts there and orphans and needy families who don't live close just aren't able to get there without the generosity of others. In all, 60 people got to go to Issyk'ul this past week who will have some wonderful lifetime memories. I'll try to let the pictures speak for themselves.
Please keep me in your prayers. Thank you for seeing my heart. Till next time...я люблю вас!!
