The girls are safe back in Ukraine.
We all had a great time at Trussville Playstation before they left. It was good to see them laughing and having fun before they left. Thank you to those that came out to join us.
We will be praying about how long and who to host next year.
I thank God for His strenght, compassion and provision to take care of 9 children all summer. God's not done with me yet. To God be the glory for all this summer.
Be Joyful in Hope....Hosting Ukraine orphans and providing camps in Ukraine for orphans.

The end of summer is coming
Soon the girls will be returning to Ukraine. 12 days left before the go. They will have one day off and then back to school.
We will be getting them luggage, candy, school clothes and small items to take home with them. They have asked for the candy to take to their friends. We will probably need 50--60 goody bags.
Most of our friends have started school. We have not made a schedule for the next few days. We will plan things on a daily basis. The children do not handle cancelation well. So for the last few weeks I have tried to not tell them the plans unless they are certain. They are asking to go to the beach. If you would like to see the girls before they leave, call me. We would love for you to visit with them.
"My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth. I John 3:18 I hope they know we have tried to love them as our own; that families have rules for a reason; that in life you can't alway have what you want and you have to work for what you want; that their are Christian people who care about them and love them.

Leaving soon
The girls leave August 28th.
We have had many host home days the last few weeks.
We have taken them to McDonalds (upon their request) and the dollar movies.
They are getting a real view of a family with 8 kids waiting on one playing volleyball or one doing gymnastics. Not fun but real life.
We are already saddend by their time to leave. We pray for them as they return to the orphanage.
