Pachacamac Orphanage March 2010 Update
MSC has partnered with Kids Alive to help build this new Children’s home. It’s exciting to see that they are starting to move into the new homes.
Over the last week the Lima Children’s Home has been slowly moving things over to the new Home in Pachacamac. Today though is the big move with perhaps 3-4 loads in a big truck…a lot of beds, mattresses, tables, chairs, dressers, clothes, etc…
The finish work is not quite done as we have not had as many teams as normal so far this year and the donations although generous have not been able to cover everything so the kids will unfortunately be moving into partially unfinished houses. It is not how we wanted it but the school year has started this week so we have to do it “as is”. So far the kids have pretty good attitudes about it and even the wee ones are helping take things out to the truck.
There will be a lot of changes for them…new home, new school, new church, for some new house moms, new neighbors, new sounds and smells (it is near a bull farm), dirt all around instead of grass (we need to do some serious landscaping!)…and other things we haven’t even thought of yet. Please be praying that the kids and staff adapt well, that the move goes well and that God’s peace and strength would be given to us all in this time of change.
God bless,
Mike & Diane Fietje
Director
