The kids delivered small packages of cookies and candy to the neighboring villagers.

Susan and Baby Faith. Everyone looked so nice in their new Christmas clothes!
Cute Lona and Jane
These puffy white dresses were my favorite! They look like flower-girl wannabes :)

Tabitha chowing down

Away in a Manger...

The Christmas drama was a success and the kids looked so great in their bedsheet costumes. (Even the ones who modified their costumes a bit....)

Angels- Boy Emmanuel and Benson
Simeon, Joseph, Mary and baby Jesus (played by Cyprus, Daniel, Mary and baby Faith)

The shepherds-- Yoli, John and Baraka. So cute!


Notice one of the sheep has his mask on upside down :) (sheep played by Nicholas, Ema and Job)

Christmas and Cookies

The kids enjoyed their Christmas Eve cookie party!

Christmas Time!

Christmas is in the air! The kids had a great time making ornaments, decorating the dining hall and baking LOTS of cookies!

Another Birthday Party...

November's birthday party was another good time. This month we introduced the kids to "Pin the Tail on the Donkey". It was a fun party!

Cooking Class

One Saturday a month, Farrah and I host a cooking class with the older girls. We kicked it off this month and the girls had a blast making "Death by Chocolate Cake". First things first: Make sure there is plenty of fire under the oven!

A Few Random Pictures

Farrah and charming, precious Charles.
Baraka in the clinic. He is a favorite of mine...such a sweet, tender-hearted boy!

Susan is really playing up her "illness" so she doesn't have to go back to class. I'm not convinced...

Bendita sweeping the dirt. What a sweet girl she is!

Some of our village patients...

Isn't she a little doll?

This mother is a member of our church and came to our clinic for a few prenatal visits. She came in one day carrying this baby and grinning from ear to ear. It took me a few minutes to realize she was just visiting the clinic to show off her newest baby. What a blessing he is!

B-I-N-G-O

Coach and Nancy introduced the kids to Bingo. They are HUGE fans! On game nights, the big kids get to come into the dining hall and play rowdy games of Bingo by latern light. Fun! :)

These pictures of from their first Bingo night. Victoria is happy for her win
Everyone is SO focused
