Day 2:
I cannot
believe that our time here at the Center is already half way over with. So much
has happened already!
Yesterday we met our children that we are serving this
week and became acclimated with the Center and our duties. This morning I
walked into our room and began drying the babies off after their bath and
dressing them. I noticed that two of the little boys who were in our group were
not in the nursery. I asked someone where they were, and I was informed that
these boys had been promoted up to the next group. I was so happy to learn that they had
advanced enough to be with their peers.
Later in the morning I went into the
kitchen to help the ladies prepare lunch for the children. I love cooking, so it
was a pleasure to help them. I have to admit though, it is a little
intimidating because I was on their turf and they speak no English.
The theme
of this week so far that resonates so strongly with me is that loving others
and serving as Christ would requires no language. The old saying is true: actions
speak louder than words.

Abby, I agree that words are not needed to show love. That is so true and I can see you showing it with the kids!
