First Time Visits, A Birthday Party and Summer Camp

The team in East Africa is having a great trip so far! Over the weekend they were able to visit the village of Korah and make several home visits. Many TSC team members were able to meet and visit with their sponsored child. For some it was the first time to meet the child they are supporting.


On Saturday they visited two different orphanages.  While they were there they showed love to several sweet kids simply by playing with them. During this time they even had a birthday party for a lucky two year old.  The party was complete with party hats, balloons and cake! On Sunday they attended worship at Great Hope Church in the morning and had some downtime for shopping in the city during the afternoon.

 Monday they headed back into Korah to start summer camp (games, crafts, bible stories, songs, etc) with all the sponsored children.  Later in the afternoon they went to visit another orphanage. Everyone on the team seems to be feeling well and is in good spirits.  Praise be to God for all He is doing in the lives of these children and the TSC team members!
