Hello again so its Friday and about 1 35 pm! this morning we did the usual up at 6 showered and then to devotions for an hour back to the restaurant for breakfast then we were met by the agriculturalist workers who took us to a school garden! we spent most of the morning there playing with the children who are absolutely gorgeous! we played tunnel tig, streets and alleys and chain tig! they liked chain tig the best because they got to hold hands with us *obviously that was my favourite too) then we did a bible story for them it was jairus daughter and i was his daughter, i had to lie down which wasn't a problem as i was suffering serious dehydration at that point!! that leads me on to the heat, if you are at this moment feeling envious of this hot weather then you are raving mad actually we are but that is because of the heat!!!! now we are off to a school on the mat, which is basically a school without a proper building!
Last night a boy of 8 years old and his less than one year old sister were rescued from Thailand where they had been abandoned by their mother, 5 years ago the boy was sold to traffickers then just 11 days ago his father died and his mother and new baby sister came to find him, when they did the mother left him with the baby said she would be back in 10 mins and never came back, so could you please remember them in your prayers as cho is finding it difficult to place them and the orphanage they have found will only take the boy not the girl!!!
Chrisitine and Davie say hi! there aren't enough computers and time for them to get on too and we all nabbed them first (Can you tell they are making me write this)
Much love to all and thanks for the comments they are so lovely to read! Helen xx

It's so good to hear what you're up to - thanks for making the effort to keep in touch. I printed out a hard copy of today's blogs to take down to the Senior Citizens' meal - just keeping everyone in touch, so be encouraged, people are actually reading what you write. School on a mat sounds fun, but we were so sad about the boy and his baby sister - it must be a hundred times harder to actually be witnessing that sort of trauma. Cannot begin to imagine the heat you're experiencing. I've just re-read your blog - did you say up at 6??? Did you mean 6??? Love, Mum
Yes mum i meant six but we go to bed so much earlier at night (kindof) and thats when its light!
