New Arrivals at New Day!!

Today is one of those days. One of those days where God nudges me and says "Hey, you know how this is sometimes hard? You know how you miss Sonic? You know how you are tired of dirt? You know how trying to communicate in another language is frustrating? It's worth it." Two new orphans arrived at New Day today, and we got to witness today being the first day of the rest of their lives. Christina is four years old, a double orphan. Mukuwa is five, and is also a double orphan. They are not related but lived in the same area. Their relatives brought them to New Day sometime last Fall and learned that the next house wasn't ready yet for kids. Once the house was done, and we had beds available, we did a follow-up visit, gathered infomation, and did medical check-ups on the kids. And here they are. Please pray for them as they settle in here, start school, and adjust to a new life. Please also pray for our other New Day kids (especially Axer!!) as they adjust to the changes and have to share some attention with their new "brother" and "sister." God is so good. Mukuwa, a tad bit overwhelmed :)
