Today the roofing crew continued working on shingling the roof while Branden, Doreen and I prepared for the pouring of the front steps and built trusses for this porch.

Our day ended with a trip to a nearby town where we were invited to join an Orphanage for dinner and a tour. Havilah, the SALTER that lives with the Kim family teaches a few of the youth "English" on Thursday evenings so we were all invited to dinner and a class. The director attended the KAC Anniversary on Nov 2 and invited us to join Havilah. We were touched by this experience. We did some one on one with students where they asked us simple questions and we answered them and later they had to report to the teacher what our answers were.

This was a very emotional evening for me as I shared with the students that we had one thing in common and that is that I also once lived in an Orphanage. No matter where we live "God Loves Us"
