Quilts for GSO

A local paper ran an article this week about an orphanage our church has been working with for a couple years.  The relationship has meant a lot to our family.  The kids happily accepted a mini-sized Christmas last year when they knew they would be helping other children.  The GSO leadership and the children are constantly in our thoughts and prayers.

This week, the orphanage's founder, Dr. Mbinda, visited us at our home.  Our friends from AFC joined us for the evening as well.  You would think that a conversation centered around tackling herculean socioeconomic issues would be dry if not downright depressing.  Quite to the contrary, we had a great time discussing the various ways we can make a difference in the world.
