Mindanao!!!

We are now in the south of the Philippines! :) We are in Malaybalay, Mindanao. It is beautiful and NOT very hot!!

Most of us are sunburned but that is a minor detail. We are loving the weather. We start work at 8 AM and then have lunch at 12 PM and then return to work until 3 which is when it typically starts raining.

The humidity is very limited and evenings and nights are...dare I say it?...almost cold.

There are 14 children here who love our attention and energy and we are more than happy to give it to them. I personally have found a friend in a 6 year old boy named Charley and then learned that he does not actually live in the orphanage but on the property with his family. He gets fresh water each day from the orphanage for his family.

There are many amazing ministries here and we have been blessed to be a part of them.

Please continue to pray that we would finish strong.

We love you, Norco!!! =)
