Today was my first day back at Smile since I had been away. There were a few more volunteers here to help us, so that was exciting and there have been some improvements as far as where we keep the babies now and they have a peaceful place to sleep. I did however find out some sad news. Baby Moses is a child that we take care of and he is sick with TB so he struggles to walk and most times he sits and cries during the day. We have been making some improvements with getting him to smile and enjoy himself but today I found out that his older brother John ( who is about 7 years old) has turned to living on the streets again, therefore Baby Moses doesn't make it to Smile. John tried to leave him at Smile the other day but the workers found him and told him to take Moses home. Since then Moses has not been back. I just want to ask you all to pray for John that he will return to the Smile. He is only 7 years old and is living on the streets to get by, stealing and doing whatever necessary, and I also want to ask that you pray for Moses because we do not know where he is and his mother does not take care of him. It saddens me to know that a mother can see her child and not want to take care of him so please pray for the mothers heart too that she will be open to caring for her children. Thank you for your prayers and I will bring any updates as soon as I get them. God bless!
