I can't believe this is my last week in India. It has been a challenging month, but a good month.
A typical day:
7:45am- Wake up, Quiet time, Get ready for the day
8:45am- Pray with my team
9 am- Cassidy and I head up stairs to work with the special needs babies while the rest of our team heads to Victory, the main building for Sarah's Covenant Home.
10:30/11- Cassidy and I work in the SCH office, (scanning, copying, filing, taking pictures of xrays)
12:15- We take a auto to a local restaraunt and meet up with our team for lunch
1:45- We head back to Victory for the afternoon
At Victory we have spent three days in each of the different rooms: Immobile Boys, Immobile girls, Older boys, Older girls, and Toddlers. We love on them, help them move around/stretch, make sure they get changed when there are dirty diapers, and make sure they sure they get the attention they deserve. I spend a lot of time trying to teach Jodi (below) how to walk:
We also love on the Ayahs (caregivers) and give them constructive criticism when needed. We are trying to correct the Ayahs of certain customs that they are used to doing- Example, they often try to feed kids while the children are laying down. When we see this, we remind the Ayahs to sit the children up. This week we are also helping lead a bible studying in the mornings
for the Ayahs, and hosting mini training sessions for them.
5pm- We head back to our "house" (we sleep in a prayer hall) for some type of R&R.
7pm- We eat dinner (PB &J or our amazing leader Alyssa sometimes cooks)
7:30pm- Feedback and team time. On Thursdays, we have worship night, and on Sundays we have prayer night.
10pm- The time I usually try to go to sleep by
