My Animoto Video

Below is a link to see the video we made sharing our team's week at Shepherd's Field Children's Village and Agape Family Life House this past June.  It was such an amazing time seeing people who are the hands and feet of Jesus ministering to orphaned children half a world away.

As David Platt writes in his book Radical, " Orphans are easier to ignore before you know their names.  They are easier to ignore before you see their faces.  It is easier to pretend they're not real before you hold them in your arms.  But once you do, everything changes."

Our teams' hearts were touched so.

The beautiful children - we know them by name now.

Their beautiful faces - we will always see them in our minds.

The memory of holding them in our arms and telling them we love them and that Jesus loves them - it will stay with us forever.

We are changed, forever.
