This years trip was made extra special with the addition of the spectacular Lucy who was a 20 year old (now 21 year old) college student from Wellesley College. Lucy's presence was a gift from Him and an answer to a prayer. This trip had to be different for so many different reasons, and we were clearly meant to have Lucy with us. Lucy met us after visiting her family who lives in Shanghai, and spent all of her sleeping and waking hours with us...not always an easy task :) Lucy worked alongside me at each orphanage we visited, and at each village. She worked inside the orphanage with older kids as I gave workshops to staff. They kids clearly delighted in her presence, as she connected with them so effortlessly. She always jumped right in, without any hesitation, sharing her amazing ideas and insights. She chose to love and bring hope to all of the precious kids we met.
Lucy created a video summary of our trip which I thought I would share:

And she is already thinking of other ways that we can give back to the special children of Guangxi who are so dear in our hearts.
Beautiful video!! Thank you very much my friend for all your work with the children!!

ReplyDeleteI'm having trouble too. I get the message "function has been disabled". Has it been turned off or is there an operator error on my part?
