Second day, with loving children.

We are here in Haiti, So beautiful.
We started early went to church at 530. We rode the TapTap there. We were all in instant amazement of the beauty of the peoples reckless abandonment for Jesus. They walked up and down the isles singing and praying. One precious old lady, "The Happy Huger", came to us and gave each and everyone of us hugs. It was so sweet how she welcomed us all so warmly and she didn't even know us! We then walked back to the guest house all together. It was a beautiful walk, you could see the mountains in front of you, and beautiful pink flowers on either side growing on the sidewalk walls.
After we got back to the house, We got ready and went to  the home for sick and dying children.



  We got there, we all went to the many rows of cribs, fed our baby we went to and loved on them. It was hard to set down the first baby you went to, to grab a different baby. They love you no matter what. The children here are so excited to see you even just for a moment. The babies were beautiful.
 We went to an orphanage called "Juno's"when we got there we didn't even get out  of the TapTap  and they were grabbing our hands and looking in our eyes to pick a person they were the happiest to see us. we all felt that no one has ever been so excited to see us in our life. the whole time they held on to the person they picked from the start. they are so faithful.  we did  crafts with them and it was so touching they sung songs to us it was beautiful the love they have for people.

TapTap.
"Bumps galore, forever more.
Movement and pacing and friendly faces.
Slow stops to fast stops
To traffic jams and more
Making memories are what TapTaps are for." By Amanda Mickle

True love
From crying babies to sad faces,
We walk in the room and light up there faces,
White or black they don't care all they want is love from somewhere,
Children so innocent caught in the world not knowing whats out there,
Makes me want to help them and find more care. By  Amanda Mickle

Some of us also learned how to salsa dance when we got home. It was amazing. Thank you all for praying, we have been so blessed to come and enjoy this trip.
