living here at the Havilla Children's Home has been one of the greatest things ever. these kids are absolutely amazing. they're all so loving, so full of joy, so thankful. i can see God all over their lives.we're just hanging out with them and loving them all the time. we love them so much.
yesterday we worshipped with them at church and that was awesome. Joseph (the director) wanted me to speak, so that was a lot of fun.
Crystal and i were hanging out with Joseph last week just wanting to hear and learn about how the orphanage started. Joseph told us the story about how a great grandmother or great aunt was passing through with 2 recently orphaned kids (Elias & Kevin) about 5 years ago. Joseph & his wife Salome decided to take them in since the elderly family member couldn't provide for them. then they took in another street kid/orphan soon after. then another.
then word started to spread that orphans were welcome with this family...
Joseph told us:
"This ministry started without my knowledge."
wow. i thought that was SO so cool. looks to me like God started this thing... and that's the best way anything can start.
now there are 47 of the most wonderful kids i have ever met living here at this place they call Havilla.
