"Bagunara"

  Fredi left for Hyderabad after lunch to start her journey home, so she just came down to the school for a few minutes to say good-bye.  I was told my schedule would be changing tomorrow so that I will come down for two hours and work with both classes.  It's going to be fun! 

In the afternoon, we had our first Telugu lesson.  (Bagunara = How are you?)  I am hoping I can pick up a bit of this difficult language in my time here.  After a meeting, we were standing outside talking to some people when it began to rain.  We took shelter under the carport. 

There was a young girl that had been sitting on the bench under the tree while we'd been talking and we found out after the rain started that she was being admitted to the Children's Home once her mother arrived.  Many of the children here are not orphans, they are simply here because their parents cannot take care of them.  There are many people that come seeking admittance for their children, but there are only so many that can be accepted.  This little girl is from a Hindu family but will be introduced to the love of Jesus from her time in this place.  Please pray for her and all the children like her!!!
