My experiences so far

Its the end of the week and I have spent much of the last couple days reflecting over what i've seen, heard, felt...Today we said good bye to the little ones and the workers at Sri punyekami school and the Asha centre, playing with the children and having them clinging to my arms and legs for the last time (at least for this year!) was a wonderful but sad experience. The children at Sri punyekami have emmitted so much energy, joy and fun that has left me smiling when ever i think of them! i will miss them LOADS!!!
The afternoon was equally moving and inspiring, the children presented an afternoon of beautiful asian/traditional dances and songs along with some drama and poetry. They were also presented with gifts in recognition of their efforts througout the year.. i was moved and blessed to see and experience such talent and gifting. They are so bright and beautiful, it is my prayer that they will be able to acheive and accomplish all that they have in their heart and use what God has given them for his purposes.

Last but not least i have to acknowledge the acts of kindness and service that the workers at both the school and the centre have shown us...i can simply say that i am humbled, they give of themselves daily and they showed us much of the same giving attitude by making us feel so welcome and valued. Beautiful people in the midst of much brokeness...i am truly touched.
