Another year has
rounded up at the Bible Home and the Roblealto Child Care
Association.
Wednesday I went up to the HB to say good bye to the
kids and witnessed some scenes I hadn't seen before. Most of the kids
go home by bus and their families pick them up. However, some
families have cars and come and pick their children up. I had said
good-byes to children before, but I had never seen any kids say good
bye to each other before. That was really heart-wrenching, especially
for girls who were returning to their families permanently. They were
both in “Exemplary Women” with me, so it was really hard for me
to say good-bye to them too, but watching they say good-bye to each
other was even harder. Thankfully there are opportunities to see them
again in the future.
The final
activities we had with personnel were fun. We played Bingo and I
learned more about the game I ever knew was possible, and on the last
day, each program's personnel put together a special presentation. At
the Bible Home we kept ours very simple—learning a simple parody
the day before. Other programs got a lot more elaborate. It was all
really fun though.
Now I'm in the
States enjoying quality time with my family and enjoying some much
needed rest and vacation.
May God grant you
rest and quality time with loved ones as well and may we all delight in the miracle of the incarnation of Jesus our Savior and Lord!
