Thank you Calvary Chapel of Battle Creek!

Thanks again to Calvary Chapel of Battle Creek for your amazing generosity! The gifts you sent for the pediatric patients were a huge hit! Each packet included a toothbrush and toothpaste, school supplies, 30 days of multivitamins, snacks, coloring pages and crayons and a stuffed animal!

Aaron and Rabea, missionary kids on our compound and their teacher Marike helped to put everything together.

Ready to go!

This is Aissa, the reigning queen of pediatrics:-) She has been with us since May when she came in with an infection that had eaten away her entire right cheek. Near death at the time of her admission, she has made a miraculous recovery and is the favorite of all the hospital staff. Lord willing she will be leaving for Togo this spring for reconstructive facial surgery thanks to Mercy Ships.

Sweet Aissa and her cousin, Marla.

Smiles:-) Everyone was so pleased to get a treat.

Rabea handing out stuffed animals. This is probably the nicest toy most of these children have ever received.

Waiting their turn...

Aaron armed and ready with a sack of stuffed animals:-)

I think they were laughing at my Fulfude...

I tried my best - Mi habdi way!

This mama requested we take her picture:-)

She had the loveliest smile.

Have teddy, will travel.

Once again you have provided laughter and smiles during a difficult period in the lives of these kids and their families. Thank you. May God bless you as you have blessed us.
