Christmas Celebration at Children’s Home
Samara Children’s Home #1 had it’s Christmas party today, a day earlier than Christmas falls on the Eastern Orthodox calendar.
The boys, girls and our team were entertained by some of the very talented children that call this place home. There was a variety of music, both sung and performed,
games, fortunes for the new year, sports and of course gifts, provided by the love and generosity of people around the West Ohio Conference.
It is a blessing to be present and witness the joy of these children. To see them laugh and squeal with delight is heartwarming knowing that they too can have special day in celebration of Christ’s birth.
Brian Twitchell celebrated his 22 birthday with us today.
This afternoon, Cecil Baughman taught a music class turning the endless energy of the children from Christmas sweets into music.
It is a sad day for Lusia and I as we will be departing for home early Saturday morning. We have a wonderful visit at this very special place and will long remember our time here…hopefully we brought joy, happiness and the knowledge that they are loved to these wonderful children.
