Hello peeps! This is Emily Kim (I am 9 yrs old), right now I’m on an awesome mission and today our group helped a lot of kids in a childrens home. We gave out bracelets to the girls and gave cars to boys. We also painted a huge garage and built a door…well, at least some of a door. We (Grace and Emily) also went swimming and the water was soooo cold. We also beat Mr. Dan in a race in the pool. Mr. Kim beat Libby (his daughter) and Grace though. So this is all, because I can’t think of anything else we did. Okay we’re out of paper so I guess this is THE END.

Hi, this is Tony Kim writing. We had a wonderful day today and I felt the Lord truly blessed us with a wonderful opportunity to serve. We went to Manantial de Amor children’s home for girls. The girls that live there are orphans in one respect or another. Some kids are true orphans, others are left there because their parents can not afford to care for them, etc. As Emily wrote above, we gave out some gifts and our girls spent time with them. Then we got started on seeing kids for various medical complaints, routine physicals, etc. The director of the home was very appreciative as there is no insurance and little money to have these kids get medical care. In addition, the director and his wife have 4 kids of their own and we were able to do screening physicals on them. As a result, we found one of the kids may have a more serious underlying problem that needs further evaluation and this may result in saving her from future problems.
“Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.” Gal 6:10
