Our grandson Jude was my priority today. Marlene, Vanessa and Hudson went to visit an orphanage so I volunteered to take care of Jude. They were planning on being back by noon. Jude is 7 months old and one of the smartest little boys I know. He worked me pretty good today. At nap time, if I was not right next to him, he would let me know when I just made the slightest attempt to leave. We took some strolls around the housing area and visited with folks. Everyone loves our grandkids and stops to speak to us. It was about 3:30 when Marlene and the kids got back and Jude was no longer tricked by my feeding techiques. Mom (Vanessa) was a welcome site. They had a great visit but got stuck in the mud on the way there and got a flat tire on the way home. We will be sharing some ways for you to help feed some of these kids in the orphanage for like $15 a month. Most of the kids in the home lost there parents to AIDS which is a huge problem here in Africa.

What a wonderful opportunity you all have to experience the outrageous love of God. We are praying for you as you are serving the Lord. What a encouragement you are to all of us back home as you share the message of God's love, mercy and peace in that area of the world. I really have enjoyed reading and re reading all your comments.
Love in Christ, Ruthie
