Kingdom Vision International Addis Orphanage

Kingdom Vision International Addis Ababa Orhpanage and director: Eyob Kolcha

Wednesday afternoon Eyob and his driver picked us up to take the donations we brought and to show us the orphanage in Addis. Eyob shared with Steve how it was a miracle that I got the girl's passports back in August on the same day as our embassy appt. It had never happened before and never again after that. He shared something how I was so emotional. Me?! He MUST be talking about somebody else. ;-)

We arrived at the orphange and after giving him the duffel bags he showed us the nursery. Oh, what sweet little babes and how sweet were the arms that were holding them. I gave each nanny & baby a hug and kiss, so precious they were that I couldn't help it.

When we arrived it was nap time. All of the beds had sleepy/sleeping children in them. Some had more than one depending on the size of the child.
Laundry for seventeen children. If you're at all interested in sponsoring a child or donating in any way, please use the KVI link on the side. A small baby had just arrived at the orphanage the day before and another in the city of Nazaret. Your money is put to the best use possible: children. If you've been interested in adopting, but can't afford it, this is a great way to help instead.
