hey everybody, i hope all is well with you. things are looking up for me, as i have started to do ministry here. its funny how when things are down we tend to be focused on ourselves and our own problems, but when we just start to minister to others and focus on other people, God seems to work in your heart and just make you feel a whole lot better. i just want to quickly share with you a little of what we did today, and what i did. first i went to the hospital this afternoon and just had a great time with this girl named niddia, she is about 26, so she is one of the older ones here at the hopital slash orphanage, she has some condition im not sure what, her hands are crippled and she cant walk but she is very smart. it was a joy to just talk with her and try and bring her joy, the funny thing is she brought joy to me and elliot the interpretor. i hope she is someone i can talk to everyday and just do different stuff with, like she really loves chocolate, but she never has had a snickers bar, so i cant wait to give her her first one. something i get to do tommorow is paint the ceiling in the kitchen for carol. i hope i can do a good job and not get paint everywhere. the other girls were able to feed some of the babies and play with some of the toddlers, jessica and laura took some of the kids to the park.  i guess i just want to let everyone know how amazing it is just to love on little kids and adults or older kids that dont get any attention, my advice to you is find the nearest orphanage or nursing home and just love those people, i cant tell you how awesome of an experience it is. anyways i love you and am praying for you all, i hope your all having a wonderful day wherever you are. stay classy planet earth
