Going Deep in Desire

We had another awesome day at Desire.  Yesterday we left early because of an approaching storm.  Today we saw why it was good we left when we did- the river we have to cross to get to the project was swollen with more water than I have ever seen.  So, late this afternoon another storm was closing in and we headed back for the hotel 30 minutes away.
Today we had the opportunity to share two Bible stories and two crafts- another first for our Faith teams.  We feel like we need to take advantage of our time with them and the kids respond well.
We also presented each child with a blanket.  The blankets were a mission project for the kids who attended our Kidz Day Camp in June.  I was able to share with the kids of Desire that there are kids back home from where I come from that are praying for them that God would bless them and protect them.  I also asked the kids to pray for our kids who live in Colorado.
Tomorrow we visit an American missionary's orphan home before we go back to Desire in the afternoon.  The afternoon will be our last time with the Desire kids until the next team comes down.  Please pray for the kids and our team because I know it is going to be tough to say goodbye to those precious kids.
