There is nothing more beautiful than the songs of praise to God from the mouth of a child....

Tuesday, November 3th, 2009

“So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. He who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his wages according to his labor. For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s field, God’s building.” 1 Corinthians 3:7-9

Today’s breakfast was full all kinds of juicy fruits…Dr. Pat would have been so happy!

We were supposed to go to three orphanages: La Hatte, Cassa Major, and Saint-Louis, each housing 60, 180 and 48 orphans respectively. Our first, and only stop actually, was Cassa Major.
We had 5 different doctor stations and one dentist station, but unfortunately we were unable to see all the children. And by the time we left that orphanage it was too late to go anywhere else. When the sun sets here, at around 5:30PM, the light goes out quick.

Pastor Louis took the opportunity to give us a tour of the orphanage and the bakery.
We had a wonderful time listening to the children singing praises!
When we returned to the guest house, the sound of singing welcomed us. We learned that the housemothers have devotionals with the children before they go to bed and part of their devotionals include singing.

We finished our day with some nice “Chinese” food, of course!
