Hi,
I just got back from DC. We were down in the hood. It was really cool. We were there from this Monday to Friday. We had to sleep in a church, becuase our apatment was not ready. By OUR I mean Me and about 15 of our churches other youth. So we whent down there to play with the kids at the center. They were really nice, well most of them. Ages 2-12. Today we had a carnivl for them, and then we left a little after lunch. The little ones are so cutie. :hug: Some of them were crying, and it made me so sad. :( I was like please dont cry,or I might start to cry. A little girl named Asia was attstched to all of us and that one had a really hard time becuase she was balling her head off. :sniffle: And she was so sweet. :angel: I miss her so much. Some of the kids were really had to work with becuase they had nobownderys. And they wouldnt let they little kids go out to much ages 2-5, so they stayed inside and whtched rated pg13, and R movies. I was like what?!?! Dont they have any little kid movies? But at home when the parents get annowed they plop the kids in frount of the cable t.v. , so they are pretty used to whatching whatever. So Ive heard. But other wise it was way cool getting to know them. And they need lots of prays, so if you could pray for them it would really nice. ;)
Thanks, Rock on!
Kanna

It's a good thing to bring some joy to children who have troubled home lives. God was working through you.
