small world, huh.

When I was in Thailand a couple months ago, I got to do something really cool. I visited a home for orphans with HIV/AIDS called the Agape Home. The kids there had mothers with AIDS who passed it on to them through child birth. When their mothers died, the families of these children were either too poor to take care of them or didn't want them. In Thailand, most people don't understand AIDS and think they can catch it like the common cold. So, they don't want to keep these little kids.

Here's where we come in....

There are some really cool, strong Thai families that want to keep the children in their family who have HIV/AIDS. But, taking care of someone with AIDS is really expensive, especially for a poor Thai family. So, our church gives money to the Agape Home and they make it possible for these kids to stay at home!

I visited homes where children didn't have to go to an orphanage because people from our church in little Hudson, Ohio gave money to help them! It's amazing. I even visited a home that we built so this family didn't have to live outdoors in a shack.

What a wonderful thing to be a part of! We have SOOO much and we are all rich in the world's eyes. We should always be looking for ways to give and bring a little more justice to a broken world.
