Babies Home!!!
One of my favorite things that i got to do while i was in Uganda was go to the Babies Home in Kampala. Grace goes once a week on the 2 hour round trip to volunteer at the Home. First we rode on a mato, which is like a 12-15 passagers bus, but we got way more people on there! Then we had to take a boda up the hill. Which is like a motorcycle, but a little smaller, that is used for a taxie. In the babies home there are about 45 babies from in newbies to 3 yrs. old. The children have been left for lots of different reasons, like either the parent has AIDS and they are afraid the babies does, or can't take care of the baby, or the baby isn't wanted. It really doesn't matter why they have been left, what matters is that these children have somewhere to call home and have people that love them and show them the love of Christ. After they reach age 3 they are often moved to larger orphanages for older children. Remember that Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world, and we should extend our hearts and hands to do the same in some way.
