I love the picture of the little girl with the baby on her back... it getsme every time!!

Thanks for sharing all of this with us, your trip was amazing!

I was looking at the first picture and then I realized the little boy was wearing pants with no back...and it's a sweet and heartbreaking picture all at the same time. I agree with Julie that the young girl carrying the baby and the child carrying the sticks are both pictures that make you stop and think about how different life is for them.

Thank you Sharon for sharing the pictures and your stories. They were all so touching. What a wonderful gift for you and yours this Christmas, to have gone out and touched so many lives and be touched in return, all in the name of God.

Merry Christmas! (a little early)

Sharon,

I am so enjoying all your trip pictures. I imagine that you came home with a whole unit worth of teaching to your girls of social studies, evangelism, GOD'S mighty and alive workings, etc etc. Were they blown away by your stories and pictures?
