Our First Week 7/18/10

We spent the first week at NLCH (New Life Children’s Home) just getting to know the kids and the other missionaries that work there. It was great to have time to build relationships with the kids, but we were sad to leave them behind when we left for language school for 3 months. We do get to go back for a week in September for a staff conference.

We taught two of the boys a foot tag game the afternoon before we left for language school. We had a feeling that it would become a hit within a few days. When we came back from language school the next weekend (to handle visa/passport/bank stuff) it seemed that every kid in the home was playing it, even the older girls! It was a great way to learn their names and get to know each of them better.
