...the poorest of the poor live in this part of the country:
*family of 7 living on $2/day
*one meal per day - rice & beans, some milk
*almost no med facilities
*children dying daily of diarrhea
*50% of teenage girls pregnant
*aids on the upswing
Yet, you see JOY in the children's faces when our kids interact with them and the gratitude of the woman yesterday as we finished a new house for her was overwhelming...
It's a BEAUTIFUL country!
This trip has pulled hard on our heart strings. No one will be able to forget what we've seen and experienced.
God has blessed us with this opportunity. It has strengthened my resolve to find ways to serve Him.
Miss you guys,
jim
