An Orphanage Visit

Our daughter, Alyssa, has sent gifts for us to deliver to a young man, named Samuel. Samuel is the son of her friend Lamarana, who she met on Mercy Ships ten years ago. Lamarana now works on Mercy Ships full time. During the Covid shutdown, she started an orphanage in Bo. Her two sons live there along with eight other children.

The home was beautiful, clean and the children happy and attending school. So nice to be there. We gave Samuel his gifts and talked to the children awhile.

We asked them what they would like to do with their education. There were two bank managers, two presidents, a nurse, a lawyer. As a thank you gift, they had the boys go catch a chicken and we brought it home live. it was killed and cooked for us the next day.
