A few days ago the the transition home boys came home from school upset because they were not allowed to attend without uniforms. The mission team wanted to help out the boys. Today started out by going to the transition house. The men worked on construction, while the women went to town and bought new uniforms for two of the boys at the transition center.
We then went as a team to a school in Balti and gave our last presentation on Human Trafficking.
In the afternoon we were able to go to the orphanage and deliver shoes. For safety reasons we were not able to take photos of the kids, but I can assure you that they were adorable and very appreciative of the shoes. One of the kids picked out shoes with red flashing lights and started stomping around the room. Two of his buddies were watching and started laughing. The kind of laugh that comes from deep with in and hurts when it's over.
We were then off to the last after school program at the transition center. We did some songs, some games, made salvation bracelets, and then finished with a talent show for the kids. Many kids came up to showcase their different talents. To close out the show, Hollie blessed us with a performance on her ukulele. It was so good I could feel it.
After the program we were able to sit down with the boys from the transition center and share some food. We prayed and said goodbyes. It was hard to leave.
We traveled to Chishinau for the night and Oleg will guide us around town tomorrow.
