UPDATE – MARCH 27, 2010
New Beginnings of Nepal Children’s Home
Our fifth report and the Good News continues…
The Nepal Children’s Home has a new refrigerator, a microwave oven, a new cook stove, a new water filter system, an instant hot water heater, a vacuum cleaner, wall murals that brighten every room, new kitchen cabinets, a washing machine and some very happy house mothers.
What were they most excited about? When the men moved the new kitchen cabinets in, Laxmi gave a superb smile to the group and hugged the ladies in appreciation. The humble nature of the Nepali people overwhelms those of us who view what we are doing as such a small thing.
For the precious children, the highlight of our creations is the new swing set. Kudos to Randy Gould and Bill Rosser for the work on this project.
Randy was planning to head home tomorrow, but changed his flight plans just so he could stay and help us complete more work next week. While there is more to be done, what has been accomplished is nothing short of amazing! And, unless you understand the lack of a consistent electrical supply and the difficult nature of shopping for basic items such as paint, lag bolts, cleaning fluids, paint thinner and wood stain, you can’t appreciate how much has been done.
We’re going to miss Rodney, Marcie and Carrrigan Weekley when they leave for home on Sunday. Carrigan, one of the first children to be placed for adoption through New Beginnings, has brought much joy to the children in the Home and has been a delightful addition to our group. Thank you for coming, Carrigan! And…without a doubt…this trip was the brainchild of Rodney. Thank you!
Our day will include a flight along the Himalayan Mountain Range.
